On Gleam's homepage: "Black lives matter. Trans rights are human rights. No nazi bullsh*t." Important information to know about a programming language /s.

Extremely important information to know. It means the community around the language cares about creating a safe environment for me and many of my friends.

>Extremely important information to know.

No it's not. It conveys nothing about the language.

>It means the community around the language cares about creating a safe environment for me and many of my friends.

They don't specifically ban child groomers like they do "Nazis", which using your logic means the language doesn't care about creating a safe environment for children and child sex abuse victims.

Let's say there's a language that has the following on their homepage: "It's OK to be White, no child groomers. No commie bullshit." If…

No it's not. You would never put "White and Black Lives Matter" there nor "all people's lives matter".

The statement is obviously not about the language, but rather about the community. Drawing some basic lines to keep edgelord disruptors at bay (or at least quiet with their reactionary bullshit), so that the focus can remain on the language.

Not in the slightest. "Woke" worries have repeatedly been shown to be true in the courts. "Open fascism" has repeatedly been shown to be Trump Derangement Syndrome.

WHOOSH

That's the point! "Black Lives Matter" means something different.

No no, you misunderstand. It doesn't mean the same thing as you imply with your previous comment.

Writing is contextual, if one only looks at the literal then one misses the other half of the meaning. Unfortunately your proposed change has added context that undermine your honourable and well-intentioned message.

As does your original text. Congrats, you made my point for me.
