tbh, the hyperland thing is, for me personally, not too dramatic. Like there was a failure in moderation and response, but "a manufacturer that supports an floss project that has a discord channel where a mod changed the pronouns of a user and the admin of said channel didn't respond harshly enough" sounds "forgiveable". Not ideal, but also not super dramatic.
DHH on the other hand 😅😂...
The hyprland situation is waaaay more than just that. And it's not hard to find with a search.

I really don't know if people actually mean fascism/nazism or is this just a term applied to xenophobic nationalism. I see this all around fedi and I genuinely can't tell which case it is.
Palingenetic ultranationalism is a definition of "true fascism" proposed by political theorist Roger Griffin.
So, you are painting with a fairly fine brush there. While "Nazi" is more metaphorical, there are definitely people with authority in the US government that are literally fascists.
most xenophobic nationalists want a strong leader that "cleans up" ASAP with deportations. while technically not the same, it's IMO pretty damn close.
