# Inclusivity Activists are Destroying Open Source
> *Left Wing Extremists call people "Nazis" and rip Open Source apart in the name of "Inclusivity".*
## Not Actively Pro-Trans? You’re a Nazi!
There is a significant, easily observable pattern of extreme bullying emerging within the Linux & Open Source world: One where people are forced to declare allegiance to "Trans Issues", or face severe consequences.
The typical pattern, within any given software project or company, goes something like this:
- Trans Activists bully people into giving a disproportionately large amount of power (and praise) to people who identify as "Trans" -- often discriminating *against* "non-Trans" people in the process.
- If someone raises concerns regarding that discrimination, that person is called a "Nazi", "White Supremacist", and "Transphobe".
- That person is then banned from the project, community, or company (likewise, anyone who defends or agrees with that person is also banned).
**Note:** A person doesn't need to say anything *even remotely* negative about "Trans" people or issues to be banned and attacked by Trans Activists. The simple act of *objecting to discrimination* against non-Trans people is enough to provoke attacks and bullying.
Examples of this bullying within major Linux and Open Source projects:

## The Need for Monero Integration in Nostr Clients
As the Nostr ecosystem continues to evolve, it's crucial to address a significant gap: the lack of #Monero integration. Currently, #Garnet stands as the only Nostr client that supports Monero, but it faces several challenges that hinder its viability and adoption.
### Why Monero?
Monero offers superior privacy compared to Bitcoin, making it an ideal choice for users who value anonymity and confidentiality. Integrating Monero into Nostr clients can enhance the overall privacy of the protocol.
### The Challenges with Garnet
Garnet is currently the primary driver of Monero adoption within the Nostr ecosystem. However, its limitations mean that this effort is not as effective as it could be.
1. **Limited Development Team**: The development team behind Garnet is too small, which can lead to slower updates and less support.
2. **Package Name Conflicts**: Due to package name conflicts, users cannot install both Garnet and Amethyst simultaneously, limiting user choice.
3. **Outdated Fork**: Garnet is forked from an outdated version of #Amethyst, which means it may lack the latest features and improvements.
4. **Dependence on Amethyst**: Garnet's development is closely tied to Amethyst, making it difficult for Garnet to establish its own identity.
### How You Can Help
To foster a more private ecosystem, we need more developers to step up and integrate Monero into their clients. Here’s how you can help:
- **Read Garnet's Source Code**: Study Garnet's source code to understand how Monero is integrated and use this knowledge to develop your own Monero-enabled Nostr clients.
- **Develop a Specification**: Collaborate on writing a specification for using Monero with Nostr. This will provide a clear roadmap for other developers to follow, ensuring consistency and ease of implementation.
- **Promote Monero Adoption**: Encourage other developers to adopt Monero in their Nostr clients.
