You lose one of the largest advocates of a free internet, and what you gain is... more people knowing that it's not acceptable to be anti-immigrant under any cicumstances

... While, Elon Musk still owns everything and in my opinion he's worse.

It's also very easy to sympathise with Mullvads co-founder here, so you help make the conditions for the next 2016 "surprise, an actual Fascist gains power!" election, which is what's happening in Sweden right now as SD (founded by dyed in the wool actual Nazi's) has become the second largest party in Sweden.

But yeah, go off king! You got this, show them who's boss! We'll all be better for it! (/s)

“Ignoring this bit of gutter racism is the only way to move forward.”

No fucking thanks. Not an inch. Here’s a politically savvy idea: maybe somebody should make an immigration-skeptical party that’s not frothing at the mouth about ethnic cleansing.

Also, it’s just one VPN out of hundreds. The free internet will somehow survive, I’m sure.

it's always funny how the hardline advocates of the free internet (especially outside of the US) are subject to this kind of unpersoning.

It's enough to consider that there's something malicious going on.

But I guess we should use one of the VPN providers that aren't pushing for systems transparency[0] and are dubiously everywhere across all of youtube advertising despite that being provably the place where the scummiest of companies go.[1].

Not wanting unfettered and uncontrolled migration (when it has proven to massively increase crime - which was the context) is not racism, that's stupid.

If 15% of the population of Japan had moved from the UK in the last 10 years and committed a disproportionate amount of crime, it would cause racism, but talking about it as a problem that needs to be solved is not itself racism.

No conspiracy, just someone who loathes white supremacy with every fiber of my being. And yes, this is exactly the core platform of any Western party pushing for ethnic cleansing and “remigration.” (Deportation of anyone considered not Swedish/British/etc. enough even if they’re squeaky clean and integrated into local culture.)

Sorry, but we’re all in this together. Anyone who disagrees won’t get a cent from me.

Bullshit, immigration is already massively down: https://archive.ph/20260720101017/https://www.economist.com/...

Same lie far-right parties around the world use to enact their sick agendas.
