This is something where those who support the "woke" culture need to take a back seat and not let this POLITICAL POISON infiltrate a community founded on OPEN SOURCE FREEDOM. That means we all work together....
The moderator was completely out of line and Godot as a professional entity should take "ITS" actions as an attack on the company/community and protect its patrons.
The removal of a neutral perspective is pure hate, abuse of power, and flaunting a narrative at the cost of the OVERALL progression of the community.
This should be treated as a malicious act against the Godot Foundation, and the business entity should take appropriate action towards the member they CHOOSE to represent them.

Open Source is certainly open discussion..... especially once THE PLATFORM engages in the topic.... its a great chance for Godot to shut this down permanently and take a NUETRAL stance.

We should have a poll on who supports this action.... and i think a petition to Godot Foundation is order if we find overwhelming support against this action.
Platforms like this have the ability to voice the COMMUNITY message.
No one here is breeding hate, but I'm fairly POSITIVE we all think these politics deserves no place in THIS world. I'd bet every dollar i have that the majority of people in the community would vote this is a highly inappropriate response.

should godot keep a neutral stance politically

controversy

Yes, politics have no plave in godot83%
No, godot should be used to spread a narrative 17%

no one in the community asked for this.
id assume no one in the community wants this.
obviously Godot at the highest level is compromised in its ability to listen to community feedback, silencing the discussion.
making a statement that this was highly unacceptable is essential to POSSIBLY stopping this.
remaining silent on this topic (on a community level) is like leaving an infected limb on your body.... it will spread, it will get worse.

Cease this.

The other thread was already locked, do you really think this one will keep open for long?

I understand that many people are passionate about the topic and their ideologies. However, this is a very sensitive topic that can quickly escalate into controversy and flame wars. This is not the place for these kinds of discussions. To protect the integrity of this forum and keep it on-topic for people wanting to discuss game dev and related topics, I just updated the rules to clarify that this is not the place for political discussions.

With this, I have locked this discussion.
