When I say that Juan keeps striking community with his stupidity, I mean it. @reduzio expresses his "Messiah complex", once again.

"What kind of jokes are these?", you may ask. Let's see what #Godoctor says about Juan, cult leader of #GodotEngine.

#CancelGodotEngine #GodotCult
The "Messiah complex" of Juan stems from his desire to save the world from those "evil" corporations. Taken together with above, he probably wants to show that he's a "Superman":

But perhaps this has more deep roots. Recall the "Thanos" tweet of Juan? Perhaps this "Godot meteor" is connected with his desire to "purge" the userbase that use "commercial software"?

Juan "The Great", aka @reduzio, once said:

"The world does not care about you or what you think, or about your world views. Keep those to yourself."

These are petty tyrant's advice that undermine critical thinking, creativity, individuality...

Opinion on the above @reduzio advice from someone who does not have an idea what #Godot represents.

In retrospect, I was highly attached to #GodotEngine, and I used to think that there's something wrong with me.

Having access to outside opinion is crucial.

So yeah, I did reach out to someone from the outside, as you see above. Otherwise, I'd still be contributing to Godot and continue being deluded by Juan's cult indoctrination.

I recall a proposal in Godot which suggested to hire a full time marketing person. This is exactly how cult communities tend to fixate on promoting their ideology. Why not just make the product speak for itself?

Even then, Godot doesn't need a marketing representative, because Godot's toxic leadership achieved this by making a cult out of Godot already. Proposals like above are simply a byproduct, because the process of promoting Godot is built into their ideology.
Godot followers will go out of their ways and suggest Godot in other unrelated communities. They'll write bad reviews on other engines to make Godot stand out. They achieve their superficial and unrealistic image of superiority by putting others down.

Behavior of Juan, aka @reduzio, lead developer of @godotengine, can be summarized as undue influence, which manifests as hypocrisy, lack of empathy, inattentiveness, irresponsibility.

Below is my critical analysis.

#GodotEngine #TruthAboutGodot #GodotCult #CancelGodotEngine
Juan posses a belief that he's destined to help people to make great games. He attempts to create a game engine which could allow users to create both casual and AAA games with little to no effort. But if you run after two hares, you will catch neither.
Juan focuses his efforts of making the engine accessible to everyone. He will always prioritize features that make the image of Godot look nice in the eyes of beholder, like editor features or movie maker mode, at the expense of neglecting core parts of the engine.

The reason why the lead developer doesn't want to make Godot's logo look professional like in other game engines is because such playful image of Godot allows to revert people back to childhood dependence and mindless obedience.

#GodotEngine #GodotCult
I'm not making this up! This is a definitive sign of cult communities. Juan, aka @reduzio, is a cult leader of Godot, and members adore Juan. Watch this educational satirical video on cults starting from here:

At the same time, Juan tells people not to call Godot a cult... This is hilarious! ๐Ÿคฃ

Godot IS a cult. Godot shares all signs of being one.

Expressing that people are sane is seen as an insinuation and a slippery slope in #GodotEngine community. ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

But when #Godot community calls others insane when they talk about Godot shortcomings, it's fine. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

To quote @Akien: "Let's not go there please." ๐Ÿ˜‰

#TruthAboutGodot
To give this context, we talked about master/slave terminology in Godot and IT. You can even see articles such as these:

Ironically, what you read above totally describes Godot. It's one of the biggest echo chambers out there in #OpenSource game #GameDev community, because dissenting opinion about Godot is seen with hostility. This is also the reason why I say that Godot leadership is hypocritical.

Godot cultists make up conspiracy theories about me on their subreddit again. Give me a break! ๐Ÿ˜‚

First and foremost, the fact that Godot cultists call me a conspiracy theorist is nothing new. See my other thread (make sure to scroll down to see the educational video on cults):

The fact that they keep talking about me in this context is really good, because all their words and actions prove everything about Godot being a cult.

I've stumbled upon a truly covert #GodotEngine propaganda video. I don't recommend watching it, because videos like these usually induce anxiety feelings and tend not to bring any kind of value. It's created by Godot cult follower, by the way.

#GodotCult

They try to induce anxiety feelings, attempting to convince you that you won't be able to achieve anything in game development. Then, they overtly or covertly offer you a solution: Godot!

This is exactly how cult phobia indoctrination works.

At the same time, they will "empower" you when you end up choosing Godot. These alterations of anxiety and so called "love" mold individuality to the point that it may hurt your cognition, so you may find it difficult to discover other alternatives.

Someone at Godot subreddit says: "I know we're being called a cult and stuff..."

It's nice to see that #GodotEngine becomes more self-conscious about this. If only they could research more, but they turn it into a "sign of success". ๐Ÿ˜ข

Making a cult out of something is fine. But they don't yet realize that Godot is a destructive cult.

Unfortunately, I'm banned from Godot subreddit, so I cannot reach out to those folks to provide my perspective there.

Seeing comments like these is painful, because it reminded me of myself in the past. It's exactly a rhetoric of a cultist. They turn the "cult" into a "sign of success", but instead of being proud, they belittle other engines, showing cult signs of "us vs them" mentality.

Most people who are in a cult don't realize that they're in a cult, or think they are smart enough to avoid it...

Unlike physical cults, #GodotEngine is an IT cult. This is truly an uncharted territory for people who'd like to study cult psychology in IT.

This is especially relevant if you're a Godot developer. Contributors who work on Godot don't have a clear vision for the project. When you try to reveal it, or you ask questions on Godot's governance, Godot leadership acts quite aggressive and repulsive:

Some Godot followers keep saying to me that I should stop talking negatively about Godot, saying that this is unhealthy or excessive. The more you try to discourage me to stop this, the more this motivates me to talk negatively about Godot! ๐Ÿ™‚

#GodotEngine #CancelGodotEngine
Because this amount of gaslighting and slandering as done by Godot followers is very alarming. To Godot followers, it's like I never existed in the first place... I repeat: I'm an ex-developer of Godot. You can verify this for yourself by launching Godot's "About" window.
I do not hide anything about myself. I'm a real person, with a real name.

Godot is an invasive culture of imitators and wannabes that enjoy plagiarism. They are irresponsible and don't respect trademarks. Serious and responsible organizations that respect themselves don't do any of those things. #GodotEngine #CancelGodotEngine Image
