It's 2025 and the Drupal project is still on X/Twitter and Meta.
Drupal's Values & Principles state:
"We will not accept intolerance. Every person is welcome, but every behavior is not.
Our community promotes behaviors and decisions that support diversity, equity, and inclusion and reduce hatred, oppression, and violence.
We believe that safety is an important component of dignity and respect, and we encourage behaviors that keep our community members safe."
Meta has completely disbanded its fact checking team and DEI initiatives, and is explicitly allowing hate speech.
Musk has oriented X/Twitter towards extreme right wing, xenophobic, homophobic, and transphobic views. He uses his platform as a fire hose of hatred aimed at dismantling power structures that inhibit his ever growing need for wealth, power, and influence.
These are facts, not hyperbole.
Drupal's continued presence doesn't only legitimize X/Twitter; it endorses it.
If we accept Drupal's presence on X, why not on Gab, Truth Social, and StormFront too?
The Drupal project has no place on X/Twitter or Meta.
I opened issue #3498933 on drupal.org to start the discussion.
