Go take a look at the comments today on reddit r/linux on the new RISC-V Xiangshan CPU news. 60-70% of the comments will tell you something. And it seems to be in line with the attitude towards Huawei for some random reason.

The LKML is not reddit and Wenruo is a long time Kernel contributor. Whataboutism gets you nowhere.

Are you so ignorant of the hegemonic war between USA and China, that you purposely ignore the vile statements […]

No, I also don’t like the stupid “trade war” politics and policies the US of A have imposed upon China. I don’t like the propaganda machine the US has going on. OTOH, you assume Qu Wenruo is brainwashed by Steve Bannon. You don’t even realise how ridiculous that sounds. If I was Wenruo reading your post, I’d ask you if you’re an idiot thinking that. This is about patches to the Linux Kernel, which you seem to know nothing about. I just realised your username and sighed because I wasted my time again.

This is about work culture at Huawei, not China per se. China is not Huawei and Steve Bannon certainly doesn’t have any power over the contributors mentioned in that thread. Stop these unfounded conspiracy theories and start providing proof.

Reddit provides a neoliberal space, Raddle/Gab/chans (4chan et al) provide a far right safe space, and Lemmy provides a safe space as well.

I think you misspelt “echo chamber” as “safe space”.
