So, I feel the need to post this because I've been waxing poetic about how fountain pens are awesome, and at the time I was not aware of how a pretty big ink maker in the fountain pen community was an antisemite.
Noodler's ink creator is an antisemite - a Reddit thread.
Previously, I was already kind of ick-ed out by the obvious anti-CCP, anti-communist stance the brand gave off, but I figured, eh, Americans gonna hate anything remotely communist/Chinese. But then the antisemitism gets revealed and I'm confident in saying, "Nope, can't buy from this guy again."
I will be going back through some of my old fountain pen posts and changing my ink recommendation.
Edit to add: BTW, I'm really fucking tired of people who can't tell the difference between a discussion about legality versus ethics. When you talk about the right
to do something, you're talking about legality. You're not asking "is it ethical", you're asking "is it legal". If you want to talk about the ethics, then you phrase it as is it right to
do blah. NOT the right to
do blah. THE RIGHT is always talking about the legality of whatever is being discussed.
