I've contributed to open-source projects for years. My account name is my real name. I'm not a bot. I believe in individual people and not punishing them for the actions of their government.

*sanctioned companies. Not individual people.

Random people can still contribute.

Nothing was or to my knowledge has yet been indicated that it is only sanctioned companies, or if it is to comply with the sanctioning of all of Russia, other than one post on Mastadon

Nothing has indicated that this is the case, other than the thing saying that this is the case.

Yes, something that wasn't published to my knowledge until after a xenophobic rant

[–] michaelmrose@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But Russians ARE responsible for the actions of their government.

[–] aidan@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Individual people are not, no. Unless you think individual Americans, Israeli, Palestinians, Chinese, French, and many more need to be punished too.

[–] NeilBru@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago

The individuals in question work for sanctioned companies.
