  • Brigading was definitely not a justified act. That was wrong and extreme, and shouldn’t have been done. However, this still doesn’t excuse the closing reply to the PR.

    People are losing their shit … over comments in the source code and a single line of documentation?

    This is quite ironic, considering the first person in the PR seems to be the person who closed the issue.



  • It takes no effort to refuse a PR without making a comment that even the basement dwellers of /r/conservative would have realized would be sensitive and politically charged.


    The developer literally said he’s not opposed to gender-neutral language

    It isn’t really important what the developer claims; if they don’t act according to their claims, then there’s no point. Even I know how to build sandcastles in the air.

    I personally got very negative vibes from that comment. It takes literally nothing to merge/refuse the PR. Instead, he replied with an extremely charged and hostile statement.

    Grammar PRs are common in open-source projects. Ladybird has had fair amount PRs relating to grammar, that have been merged. Are those not “cruft in that doesn’t advance the project technically”? What’s so specific about this PR?

    Also, if a person cannot see the effects of their statement on such a charged topic, then that showcases blatant stupidity and obtuseness.

    unrelated to previous content

    From my point of view the left seemingly calling every Republican a “Nazi” sounds just as stupid as the right calling everyone on the left “woke”

    +1, this is a major issue


  • I’ve checked out the PR, and it does look bad. But I’d like to see a justification. The comment seems blatantly transphobic/misogynistic. Seems like you’re saying that my understanding is extreme. How could yours be refuted?

    Brigading was clearly not justified, but as per my apparently extreme opinions, so isn’t the original reply?
