Cancelling DHH would be a stupid kneejerk reaction given how much of a major part of Ruby’s story is thanks to 37 Signals and their community involvement, including but not limited to Rails.

If this is the reason, I am behind this takeover. It’s weeding out bad actors that have a shortsighted mentality.

I do not want RubyGems and Bundler to become yet another pair of ideological playgrounds for people that spend more time protesting unrelated causes than actually _writing and developing software_.

I agree, on the other hand, financially supporting someone that you fundamentally agree with the principles is also not doable.

This is all a callout for people to step in and really help open source and free software before it is too late.

It can be by doing work, participating of the discussions, helping reviewing costs and expenses or even money.

This will certainly trigger the heads of evil dudes in suits and it will become a darker scenario.

Unfortunately, and very unfortunately, the world that Stallman predicted is here and we are late to start pushing back.
