It all started with the unofficial godot discord admin dealing with some chuds and people turning their ire towards the Godot Foundation staff instead.

Since Godot has stubbornly remained on the Xitter nazi bar as a valid space for PR and social media interaction and dared to promote the Wokot hashtag and reiterate their progessiveness, the reactionaries infesting that space are now piling on their socials and harassing everyone they can get their eyes on.

Examples

Anyway, solidarity with the targets of harassment. I hope they finally realize that Xitter is a lost cause.

Update: Godot is being review-bombed

Fortunately the reactionary backlash seems to be having the opposite effect

Oh okay that helps a lot, Thanks. I guess a lot of people are trying to spin it like this is the official server.

It used to be the only Godot server, but I don't think it was ever labeled "official"

Correct, it was the biggest most known one. Godot kind of pointed towards it with the message "We don't officially do discord, but here is a big one that is unofficial". Always felt like this was to not fragment it into 20 discord servers.

Some people claiming that it was "practically the official one" are bending the truth to fit a narrative to say the least.

@SpaceMan9000 @shotgun_crab it's all kinda a strawman argument anyways, the discord server had nothing to do with the hissy fit being thrown, the posts on that came way later (and as you point out have nothing to do with the foundation anyways). The whole thing was a few nutjobs posting racist stuff to twitter in response to godot asking for inclusive games, then starting a brigade and targeted harassment when they got blocked because of it.
