Correct. Not providing access to a chronological, raw timeline is also censorship and anti-user.

Fwiw I pretty much agree with your assessment and it's who I was talking about in my comment. If you work in this industry, your boss is likely a centrist Democrat.

One of the reason people need to make new accounts when they post anti-censorship thoughts, is that censorship has reached into our industry and a sort of neo-McCarthy blacklisting…

Ah classic dang! Abusing your mod powers to punish and down talk anyone who questions your narrative. The comment in question is absolutely on topic and relevant. You just don't li…

We're way off topic but again I support BLM and do feel economics play a role.

I'm not attacking BLM. I support it. This list however I don't support because the members are from wealthy backgrounds and are being presented as needing extra help.

BLM is a group that represents economically disadvantaged people. This list is pulled from the upper most echelons of society. Do you think it's ok to represent the wealthy as some…

It's extra annoying that they've co-opted the Rosie the Riveter iconography. As if these people know anything about blue collar labor (male or female). The people on this list, Tec…

Yes they did 1/2 have of the work they could but I'm not complaining about getting more information. Someone else should leak the RNC. Or possibly it didn't contain as many bombshe…

Whoever released the emails did the American public a huge service. They pulled back the curtain and we got to see how the sausage is made. It doesn't matter who they are or why th…

I don't see how everyone is better off if the event doesn't even get held. Unless 50% of the applicants are women then a 50% participation quota _is_ arbitrary.

When you're viewing a source code file, there are links to Raw, Blame, History, Permalink... The Raw link is broken (for me). I can create an issue.

I don't understand how they can say "Ultimately, our goal is egalitarianism" and yet point #1 is "Make Women a Priority". Targets, arbitrary quotas, not holding events if 50% of th…

Great stuff! One thing that's been broken for me for a while now: Raw links. I just get an empty response. It's kind of an important feature for me (and I'm sure others) so would l…
