Framework supporting far-right racists?
Hi, I am not exactly sure how best to frame this, but recent events have got me wondering where exactly Framework, as a company, stands with regards to human rights and equality.Framework Community
The CEO of Framework has now made a cowardly bullshit-statement on the fascist website Twitter while the Framework account on here is still being quiet about the topicQuote below
To avoid disappointing anyone later who wants to ascribe beliefs to me, I am pro-immigrant and pro-LGBTQ. I’m also pro open source and have committed myself to guiding people out of closed ecosystems into open ones. This is not posted under duress, but under a realization that at a certain scale of visibility, it becomes insufficient to hold beliefs without stating them, because others will attempt to state them for you.

Needless to say, Framework has shown in the last week that they are explicitly pro-fascist and I'm done with them. No matter how good my experiences with their laptops have been, i will no longer spend any money on them. If i ever upgrade or repair my framework laptop, I'll have to find parts on the used market, and my next laptop (whenever the time for that comes) will be from somewhere else

That one sentence encapsulates the problem pretty succinctly, doesn't it?
