so I don't understand. why are all these comments yelling the same stuff? did they just decide to harass this one guy for saying "take it somewhere else, please"?
I'm trying to find anything malicious in anything he's said. I'm finding nothing but a dude working on a browser.
this kind of behavior scares me greatly. I know individuals who have been victims of real transphobia. this seems to be a simple language difference. and I think targeting this guy is a mistake.
Flooding and being loud doesn't make them right. it just means they're loud.
They use the "silence is violence" trope to harass and terrorize projects, hiding behind their "protected status" as a transgender. Whenever someone rejects anything that calls for "greater inclusion", they go nuclear and tell all their friends to do the same. The bullied becomes the bully. It's very childish. It's always people that never contribute any meaningful code as well.
edit omg I'm sorry I was replying to the wrong comment. they got me fucked up. lol
I'm with you. i see this a lot in the lgbt community and nobody calls them out on it.
