Arch Linux is a fantastic distribution. It should remain exactly that: a 
computer operating system for technical users. Politics should not be part of 
the project.

Recently, the Arch reddit logo was changed to a rainbow. This is for "pride 
month". It is forcing a political view on all of the users who did not ask for 
this. Many of us don't care about the views of the developers or moderators as 
long as we continue to enjoy Arch.

When this was brought up, the moderator silenced the criticism and deleted the 
thread.

This is where the problem begins. If we cannot even discuss disagreement with 
views being forced on us, what's left? Please moderators and developers, 
reconsider forcing your views on us and not even allowing discussion about it. 
We do not all share your views, but we can get along if everyone is left to 
their own devices.

This kind of topic should not even need to be brought up. It's very 
disheartening to see whoever moderates that reddit doing this. We just want to 
use Arch. In many cultures outside of Europe or the US, this is not welcome at 
all. Even in those countries, not everyone wants an agenda shoved into their 
face.
