Short form:

* One of the lead devs' laptops is named after Hitler's hideout in the forest

* Their 2017 conference had a torchwalk that was a staple of Nazi youth camping (and heavily encouraged by the SS as a nationalism thing)

* Multiple of the core devs are just assholes to people on and offline.

* Most of the suckless philosophy is "It does barely what it needs to and it was built by us, so it's superior to what anyone else has written". A lot of it shows in dwm, dmenu, etc.
