The Kus Public Review & AMA: 2022 - 2025

I would not pretend W3F/Parity/the other side is a good bird here. Just weeks ago they were still siding with Jay with all those moderation censorship and their leadership calling others jerks. Outside of W3F/Parity, I even saw on Twitter someone directly called flez a “useful idiot”. You guys sided with Jay, by allowing this bullying to happen. W3F/Parity allowed this blatant abuse with their inaction and moderation censorship.

Now all those come back to bite you. Who’s the real “jerk” and “useful idiot” here? I hope you also realize how many new enemies you have made for Polkadot in this process, just because you refused to properly uphold the Code of Conduct and allowed this bullying.

If you are a big organization, inaction and bad decision is already evil, because there are many others (investors and such) who depend on you.

This is not the first time W3F/Parity’s bad decisions hurt us deeply. Recall the Polkadot Hub / EVM delay? When I pointed out the issue in May, the leadership responded by firing me a week later, only to realize two months later that I was right and forced to pivot. We see a similar pattern here. The W3F/Parity organizational decision making process never improves. This is why we are here today.
