I think it's great the way Ms. White met their ugly speech with more speech of her own.
That's the remedy to ugly speech, more speech.
I disagree with Ms. White almost entirely, but I do approve of the way she has chosen to confront them.
In the past 36 hours, we've seen github censor this speech, and calls from feminists to have bitbucket censor this repo at bitbucket as well. On twitter there have been callouts where people who "star"ed the repo were listed and implicitly threatened and people tweeting in support of the parody were named and labeled.
That sort of behavior from github and from internet feminists trying to stifle speech and police speech is wrong.
