Bug#1035100: Unrelated political statement in main UI

[piorunz]

Hi w at uter,

Thanks for your reply.

"I can understand why Russian nationals might want to not see this
message. After all, the oppressive Russian regime has made it a crime to
even speak up against the Russian government these days, and so they
could be at risk of being imprisoned by using this software."

You should try to understand why anyone, anywhere, might not want to see
this message. I am not Russian nor do I live in affected regions, or
even Eastern Europe. But I feel that any sort of pressurizing political
statement, of any sort, has no space in open source software
development, at all. Code is apolitical by nature. However, even if your
opinions may be different from mine, and you are entitled to them.
I voiced my concerns, you commented on them. I hope more people will
think on the issue after reading our conversation.
Meanwhile, I will continue to refuse Thonny software, I happily
uninstalled it, because there's more software without political
statements I can use.

Kind regards
