sooo the dylan field/figma/zionism drama on the bird app hasn't made it here yet

fc designers, how are we feeling about the ceo of figma blocking designers who support palestine or are anti-zionist?

random facts and life excerpts. vulnerability is strength ✨🌈 fullstack & design, building /uno

the blocking is weird, but I am in the "your account your rules" camp

he's free to retweet / block whoever and people are free to diss - don't know what else I'm supposed to do or say about it 🤷‍♂️

yeah i just find it fascinating from a psychological standpoint

in terms of all notable figures who take stands or don't, especially ones with a company's reputation to tarnish

like think of elon stepping down as twitter ceo

or tswift NEVER taking a stand on anything

and also on where people draw the line 

like people boycott zara/h&m for stealing from artists and other fashion designers

but will designers boycott figma if they don't agree with the ceo's political and social values?

figma doesn't have as many alternatives, that def factors in
