what's the point in attacking a source control website anyways?

Classic case of coop the resistance by introducing completely different talking points.

FOSS is not left or right, it's FOSS. Those trying to change it to something else is trying to coop it.

There is no controversy. The blue vs red lens does not make sense in this context.

Well the open source crowd is probably one of the most diverse communities in so many ways.

Everything from wife-killers, toenail-eaters, to geniuses that rolled a one in social skills. From Mexico, to Israel, to Indonesia. From a kid in the library who can't afford a computer, to millionaires running a data centre in their basement.

Diversity is one-third of DEI, which currently is public enemy number one. So here we are..
