Ola's Bhavish Agarwal is on a tirade against linkedin.

People are missing the point. I think the core issue is that linkedin should not delete his comment, even if they dont agree with the contents of it. Bhavish might have a politically incorrect (or correct) take on using pronouns, but either ways its not LinkedIn's job to delete his comment until and unless it runs fouls of government guidelines.

Maybe this is where the #Fediverse comes in.

Of course laws cover most cases but they are not the only standards for society. Laws are slow to change with society. Anti dowry law was in 1961, Bonded Labour System (Abolition) Act was in 1976, Same sex marriages are still not allowed in India, Show of love (as simple as kissing) was illegal for gay couple until last few years, we are still battling against hate speeches in courts.

So people can take a call as to what is allowed on their turf or stage or platforms. They need to be open about it.

@thej @mastodonindians yeah but either which ways, it seems highhanded on the part of linkedin to delete it.

There would have been enough negative comments on his post to get him to delete it or reconsider his position.
