If anyone is familiar with this, why are they so salty?

We don't know what is said behind closed doors but publicly (until around 1/6/2020) Lunduke's twitter was relatively unhinged (pretty much what you would expect from a far right winger)

Sucks because I don't read the shit he writes or mess with the projects he puts out these days.

Are you saying he was putting out right wing political comments or just using it describe the parallel between his views and that of the community?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

He was retweeting Andy Ngo and Proud boys.

@Toes I'm sorry.... WOT? Why is a tech reporter and Linux advocate now persona non grata in some Linux-oriented communities?

Clearly I've been out of touch.

Yeah, that is exactly what I'm confused about.

I watch the occasional video from them and nothing ever seemed funky, he just seems very passionate about tech.

Niccolo Ve did a pretty comprehensive summary of all his problems recently: https://inv.tux.pizza/watch?v=mhqeuO9RKKk

He's been on a right-wing, transphobic, anti-woke downward spiral for years now.
