Some of the comments in this thread make me pretty sad. There is a lot of nuance, obviously, but generally speaking when people say work is too "political" and make complaints that "people are allowed to insult straight white males, but insulting other groups is off limits", it doesn't take much reading between the lines to see what is going on. I hope everyone can take a second and appreciate how underrepresented certain demographics are in tech and that we should all work to change this.



> "people are allowed to insult straight white males, but insulting other groups is off limits"

No-one in the thread has said this.


I believe the thread is being edited, but I read multiple comments along these lines.
