@sjw I think this is awesome. I'm amazed that they let it slip by for two years.

While GitHub is "what the kool kids use", they lost my trust with how they handled DMCA takedowns and then when M$ bought them. Too bad there are not any good alternatives that are not bloated. SourceHut looks appealing but I wonder if it has been infected with wokeness like everything else has.

I'm glad that `esr` chimed in:

Given the parroting nature of this article and the "social justice" peanut gallery, I guess people are not allowed to grow or change. Operating under the premise that people can't have faults or own up to past mistakes does not help build movements or communities. This toxic "cancel culture" behavior has infected all areas of FOSS with many communities losing their best talent for BS reasons, with the quality of software suffering as a result.

As for RMS getting into "a position of power", this is the biggest joke with him getting exactly one board seat with one vote.

At this point, I don't feel welcome anywhere in FOSS; I'm close to telling everyone to FUCK OFF and just walk away. This BS is not worth the time, effort and negligence that it has inflicted to FOSS and society at large. I've always kept my political views, opinions and thoughts to myself in *any* professional setting and it seems like that is not enough. #FOSS #FreeSoftware #RMS #FreeThought

@r000t @sjw I was aware that such licenses exist, but have not seen any projects that are actually using them.
