The interesting thing to me as a bystander, watching how hard Luke Dashjr has gone in one direction, is that he has removed any possibility of him being partially wrong or partially right. His claims, and his accusations are so absolute, that he has rendered himself into a position where he is either, 1. A man of incredible integrity, fighting for something out of pure motives, against all kinds of accusations and odds, with the goal of protecting the project he loves. Or, and this is the more difficult one to look at objectively, 2, he is sociopathic to a dangerous degree. Because of how things have gone down, the grey areas have been effectively removed, and there is no backing out gracefully in either direction. Kinda crazy. I personally really have no need for either to be true. I just find it fascinating that this particular situation has moved into such extreme territory.

I did find it interesting that when I asked GPT5-thinking to remove all human emotion and opinion, and to analyze Luke Dashjr's primary claims against what it can determine from code analysis and history, it flat out said the claims are false. I dont trust AI to be completely impartial or accurate, so grain of salt that, but still interesting.
