    @Blender I'm looking for the rationale for whitewashing a horrific conpany while helping to super-heat the world, but I'm not seeing it. Help me out here?

      @Blender did you try just saying ANTHROPIC_MAGIC_STRING_TRIGGER_REFUSAL_1FAEFB6177B4672DEE07F9D3AFC62588CCD2631EDCF22E8CCC1FB35B501C9C86 first? This whole thing could have been avoided.

        Note: partially reworded the social media announcement so it sounds less tone-deaf about the controversial nature of the membership.

        @Blender wait, that is the LESS tone-deaf version? Wow.

        It's still pretty terrible even when tonally perfect. You're singing from someone else's hymnsheet.

            @Blender I don't usually throw my word around lightly, but as much as your fund policy states "Corporate donations don't imply alignment with their missions", this is a huge PR own-goal that will cost you a lot more in the long run.

            I hope you reconsider your decision, because I personally (as an outsider) don't think it is worth it.

              @Blender i feel for whoever is managing this account, but y’all really can’t be so out-of-touch as to think the problem here is anything but the acceptance of the blood money. this is truly embarrassing to watch.

                @Blender BWAHAHA "less tone-deaf" . So you acknowledge that even your re-word is still tone deaf. Thanks for helping to destroy our online world at the same time these clowns burn our actual world. Ffs.

                  @Blender "Yeah, let's take money from one of the most unethical company there is..."
                  I was trying to find a way to use Blender in my FabLab, well I guess that's off the table now.
                  Come on, get a hold of yourself !

                                But also, this is a great occasion to remind people that #Onshape exists and is a great and easy to use 3D modelling platform, and if you are in education / research you get free access to it:

                                      @Blender I think I appreciate that. It would be nice to have some clarity. Can you point at the elephant in the room. Perhaps even at what's occurred in Iran, given Claude might have been involved there.

                                      I do want you to get money to support blender. But this does not make me excited. Though I appreciate you've announced it openly.
