    Choose one: 1) pour money into reverting global warming 2) pour money into demilitarising the world 3) pour money into space travel and colonisation

    Okay let's see if OP's post gets flagged like hundreds of other offtopic ones throughout the years.

    If you think people are either extremely transphobic or extremely transphillic, that makes you immature. Absolutism is a childish thought trait.

    Why are you defending the press? If they don't stick to facts, what use are they? Now we have an entire generation that "fucking love Science" because some TV stars said we're made…

    The greatest trait of life is the ability to adapt and survive. What would be the point of procreating in a passive Edenian world?

    What is your company policy on racial and ethnic diversity? Would you balance caucasian and non-caucasian banks?

    On the flipside, this serves as a demonstration for what is good teaching practice. The classes that suspiciously see no change go to show you can't scribble on a whiteboard and ca…

    Shows how little experience you have with asking people why they disagree with these changes, if you shrug off rationalism as racism.

    I can also make analogies. It's like asking a baker for carrot cake every day and when he finally makes one, you explain you were merely thinking of other people. Nobody else has a…

    Oh so ending racism and homophobia in the real world takes too much effort so let's make other people CTRL+H some files instead? That's pitiful and an insult to people who try.

    I explained my entire point of view. As an ESL I can't do better. Thank you.

    I mean it as a movement that is meant to louden people's voices but ends up perpetuating stereotypes and slipping homosexuals who don't stand out and aren't flamboyant into such a …

    What lucrative alternatives? Is there another Linux kernel I'm not aware of? Another Google? If you can't sit down and do a good job instead of having inequality living rent-free i…

    That's just an assumption on your end. I'm not the one going against social norms and making people pay special attention to me or else I cancel them. If anything, these codes of c…

    How many people feel uncomfortable with this terminology and who are they? What about the people who feel uncomfortable with the new terminology instead (the majority)?

    How is that slippery slope? Are you saying only some people have the right to express hurt?

    If people get swayed away from an entire profession because of a few words, how can they have the mental capacity for constructive criticism? For being told directly that their wor…

    We go extra lengths and try to formalise subjectivism but gain nothing. It's always anecdotal evidence or sensationalism that provokes such changes to be made. In fact, why don't p…

    Professionals call it 'negative PR', 'slander', 'sabotage', and other such words. Why can't we have 'disagreement culture' or 'better-alternatives suggestionism' instead?

    Lines must be drawn with cancel culture. To avoid any slippery slopes, will eliminating or demoting this person hurt the project? In case of Linus taking a forced holiday to "psych…

    But we're seeing the opposite. Speaking against counter-culture and being cancelled.
