Sometimes terrible people can do good things.
Those good things should be supported.
Judge a project on it own merits.
People still use the Autobahn.
Great analogy and perspective.
It's not that great an analogy because the autobahn isn't still maintained by Nazis.
That's your opinion on what is and isn't a great analogy.
Hopefully the maintainers of the project will be more considerate in the future.
It's not my opinion, it's an objective flaw with the analogy where the comparison doesn't entirely work. It's not a big deal, by their nature analogies tend to be imperfect.
