That is completely unprofessional conduct, and not something that should have been aired on a project mailing list or bug report. Keep that nonsense on facebook or whatever.
^ Yeah, that's exactly what I mean.
"I'm a man and some crazy woman ran over my dog killing him!" "Our code of coduct says that's unprofessional you scumbag!"
"I'm a woman and some man just killed my dog!" "Oh poor deary, let's have a stickied from page thread discussing how men are misognists and do stuff like this. That's so sad. Is there anything we can do?"
Sorry I didn't look at your patch earlier. Some crazy woman ran over my dog with her car killing him! Did you just say something negative about "women"???
I'm just so upset - my dog has been my dearest friend for the last 10 years! The poor pup got me through a year of a terrible job and depression. I just can't look at patches right now I'm so upset. I see what you're doing, you're not looking at my patch because I'm a woman and in your misogynistic view my code isn't worth your time!
Holy crap, don't you have any sense of human decency at all? My dog just died! Oh you think you deserve some sort of compassion? You've lived your whole life as a privileged straight white male! You live life on easy mode. Clearly the real reason behind your not looking at my patch is your misogyny. I'm reporting you and getting you banned.
A few weeks before that:
Omg this guy just hit and killed my dog with his car! I'm so upset.
Holy crap, that's terrible!
Can you believe these fucking straight white males ruin everything? Now my dog is dead!
Uh...I'm really uncomfortable with that. Oh, I suppose you're a straight white male who's just used to living a life of privilege and having everything handed to you huh?
What happens is the "rules" are selectively applied where the first guy is kicked out and the second person is not.
In reality most of these things are non-issues online until someone deliberately pushes it. Online you choose your own username and no one knows your race, gender, or anything else about your background. The need to make them a specific issue is something else.
That's the opposite of how this works. When the workplace is good people almost never refer to a code of conduct. When the workplace turns toxic the code of conduct becomes selectively applied to favor the toxic people (who are very practiced at manipulating the system) to burn regular people (who have little experience manipulating the rules) out.
If all that actually worked SJW's could simply fork FreeBSD.
SJW's have tried that before but it doesn't work for several reasons:
- People tend to stick with the original
- SJW's interest is driven by telling people what to do and how to think. Once they create their project where everyone lines up with the same thoughts and words they lose interest. Those projects die as no one is really interested in contributing working code to them without any drama going on.
If you manage to feel that persecuted as a white guy, that feeling youâ(TM)re experiencing is really just you finding out that you and your dad are assholes, sorry. Deal with it and learn to be a better person.
A Narcissist's Prayer
That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did...
You deserved it.
"You're (certain race) so you deserved to be treated like shit"
If you are part of a class of people who have clearly enjoyed hundreds of years of unearned benefits, like me, Iâ(TM)d imagine being a brown woman and STFU. If youâ(TM)re not trying to be a dick, thatâ(TM)s what ya do.
A bunch of white people create a narrative about what being a "brown woman" is like then insist that you don't think or feel for yourself, you just adopt their narrative.
Also by race and gender "brown women" have the absolute lowest suicide rate, white men are at the top, if you just count women white women are at the top of theirs.
I fail to see why it would be a good idea to put aside my own thoughts and feelings in favor of a narrative crafted by a bunch of white people masquerading as "what all brown people think".
It creates a fiction of how women are oppressed - ironically it then uses this narrative to attack women's privileges and oppress them itself.
Women being noticed as people? - bad
Women being found attractive? - bad
Women raising a family? - bad
Women being slowly pressed into and crushed by corporate culture? - magic, freedom, good!
Women being socially isolated to the point you have to treat them like as a social landmine? - magic, freedom, good!
Women and children being trained to see socially bonding physical contact as horrific? - omg so magic
The tagline of feminism is basically "relationships are oppression, work is freedom!" - that's not actually trying to "help women".
Obviously to solve this inequality problem, women should be required to wear shock collars, that shock them if they're not working the same hours as men. We need to solve this inequality problem - to help women!
I've been saying this forever.
How many guys do you know move in with their girlfriend and live off her paying the rent?
How many guys do you know have their girlfriend frequently pay for their meals?
How many girls are mocked by guys because they still live at home?
Not a lot. You know why? Because don't NEED to do the extra work to make more money like men do.
Women earn less money because they can. Because they have a backup plan that involves a guy paying for their stuff.
Feminism is about sacrificing women's happiness for more profits. That's why it hates families, sabotages relationships, promotes promiscous sex while fearing emotionally bonding sex.
Because by taking away options from women, it forces women to make more sacrifices for money. If women are miserable it doesn't care, as long as women are more profitable.
At this point I give it > 50% that feminist activists set those up so they'd have a topic to complain about and claim sexism. Have you seen how many times their high publicity complaints turn out to either be completely made up, or so mischaracterized it completely misrepresents the original action.
Also feminism is an antagonistic political group, it's highly debateable how representative it is of "women" at all. My experience is feminism is just as hostile towards women that won't repeat their narrative as they claim sexist men are.
I know, this is the first thing I thought to. Service is brand new. First major show on it.
It's like those "You're my favorite 2nd oldest sister" or "You're my favorite (only) father in the whole world!" jokes.
Do you remember WW1, where 2 sides slaughtered each other because of 1 clumsy assassination after decades of antagonistic rhetoric back and forth?
Antifa's claim is that there's a "good guy" in "jofferey fights ramsay bolton". In Germany the communists had regular street brawls with nazi brownshirts, the nazi's had more public support. After the communists were crushed they continued their street brawls with anyone they could find until the night of the long knives where hitler stepped in and arrested and shot their leaders, again with public support.
> These are exactly the people that made the dark ages dark. And they seem to want that state back.
Yeah, it's like watching a recreation of the worst parts of the conservative catholic church. Constant guilt about everything, everyone is important who's not you, sex is always bad and shameful (despite it being why we exist), lots and lots of talk about morality from people with no issue being immoral themselves.

There's no doubt that elementary school name calling like you're doing is going to drive away contributors. Let's not pretend that you're against that when you're doing it.
Sjw themes are always very orwellian. The Ministry Of Peace -> Organizes War. We Need More Contributors -> Attack And Degrade existing contributors.
It's not a coincidence, listen to what they say they're doing, and assume they're doing the exact opposite.
As the saying goes, capitalism is a deeply flawed system but it beats anything else that's been tried.
The economic defense of capitalism is premised on the ubiquity of competitive markets, providing for the rational allocation of scarce resources and justifying the existing distribution of incomes. The political defense of capitalism is that economic power is diffuse and cannot be aggregated in such a manner as to have undue influence over the democratic state. Both of these core claims for capitalism are demolished if monopoly, rather than competition, is the rule.

They own most eyewear retailers. They own the 2nd largest vision insurance company. And it's actually gotten worse since then - they merged with essilor the number one manufacturer of lenses and contacts, who also previously bought out most of their competitors.
If you've tried to buy glasses lately it is awful. You will run into the skeeziest smarmiest sales techniques I've ever seen.
Break your glasses and need a new pair asap? They'll claim they "can't" make a new pair until you pay them for a new eye exam, which they'll do whenever they happen to have time available.
You can't see without them? Who cares, fuck you.
And I tried at least 5 different places. They all clearly run the same skeezy sales con. You "can't" get anything new without paying for an eye exam. The place I actually had an up to date eye exam tried to tell me I'd have to get another one in order to buy glasses through them.
And lenses - the lens material with the best optical quality is CR39. It's also the cheapest. You can expect huge theatrics about how they'll be super thick, heavy, your children will contact the plague and die if they come into contact with CR39 instead of "high index" lenses. So I bought both. Guess what? High index makes me dizzy, it's harder to see, I can't see to the sides. CR39 on the other hand, no issues. CR39 was about a mm thicker...whup de do.
I can't really describe the emotional hysteria you run into as they run one skeezy sales technique against you after another.
They do this because they own everything - if you get pissed and leave, that just means you buy from another shop that also sells glasses from the same people.
