    Her political views were probably common knowledge to many of you, but I only learned Milkshake Duck was racist in a stubsack thread a few months ago.

    If it’s any consolation; sectorlisp might be written by a literal self-described neoreactionary, impractical, written by a cryptofascist, computer scientific masturbation, written by a politically incoherent and confused person, pointlessly constrained, written by an obvious cryptofascist and written by a fascist; but it’s still cooler and more practical than Urbit.

      I might be one of the few who had the reverse revelation, learning about her terrible politics, and then marveling at the amazing technical accomplishments when I read further. Is that a new different way to have a terrible time online? Discovering that Racist Duck also made milkshakes.

        My Lisp is not a nazi. It might be a neoreactionary, a turing tarpit, a bootloader, and a nazi, but it is not a JavaScript.
