    Since you didn’t notice that in that post /u/parentis_shotgun claims to have made Jerboa and links to it - which links to github.com/dessalines/jerboa - you’re not very observant so I’ll provide you with some alternative posts as evidence.

    Step 1) Visit /u/parentis_shotgun’s profile

    Step 2) Old PgDn to load some posts. Find the one that says nothing but “Yes” on it. This post specifically.

    Step 3) Click Context to see which question it is answering

    Step 4) Read the question: “Wait a second, are you the same dessalines that narrated my The State and Revolution by Lenin and Fascism: What it is and how to fight it by Trotsky?”

    Step 5) See /u/parentis_shotgun’s response: “Yes.”

    “Misinformation”.

    Ask yourself: What exactly do you get out of defending Tankies?

    Alternative route #1: Find parentis_shotgun’s post about creating thumb-key - a privacy-conscious Android keyboard made for your thumbs. Notice it links to a Github profile for dessalines.

    Alternative route #2: Find this post where they keep their “communist 101s” on dessalines.github.io/essays/

        I dislike genocide apologists about as much as I dislike liars and people who spread misinformation. It’s trivially easy to confirm who /u/parentis_shotgun is - so calling it misinformation is blatantly lying especially when their first point is blatantly wrong.

        People can be OK with the dev being a Tankie (“separate the art from the artist” which is a terrible philosophy in its own right but people are welcome to believe in it this more of a philosophical difference) but denying that the dev is a Tankie is where I cross the line. The dev is a Tankie. Do with that information what you will but there is no denying it.
