Social Justice (SJ) is only ever based on the current social ideals, in 40 years time our social cues will be as alien as the 1970s social environment is today.
Codes of Conduct (CoC) have there place although are - for the most part - only relevent in the short term based on what can be fleeting social values, which by there nature evolve on a rolling basis
Most of the issues that cause the apparent need for SJ and CoC can be mitigated by treating people as INDIVIDUALS not a representative of a larger social group.
You cannot by default exclude ideas from socially anxious or awkward people, just because they may project their anxiety or awkwardness in the form of a pissey or even obtuce attitude
The more I read about inclusivity the more exclusive it seems, its a nice idea tho
You simply cant please all the people all the time, you will however piss off some of the people off most of the time.
Which brings me to Linus.
I am hoping that his leaving the project he started - and holds the rights to - is only temporary as he has indicated, and is not the symptom of a powergrab for control of the project by others.
however if he chooses not to return, I truely hope he forks linux into the honeybadger kernel project
Why?
Cuz Honeybadgers don't give a fuck.
