And I actually have experience in the Rust community myself, they 
are hostile and aggressive, and I have been banned for 
disagreeing with them on some topics, do not let what the person 
said before mislead you, 'inclusivity' and 'diversity' is only a 
cloak for something more extreme for my experience.

And I will repeat this again, Rust encouraging users to donate to 
BLM (which is a very far left leaning organization) IS a 
political statement, Rust is political and only accepts people 
that conform to their echo chamber, that's all.

And look, in the beginning I preferred to stay out of this, but I 
am going to speak up, I am not going to let these people destroy 
other communities as well.
