Your lack of empathy is telling.
- KirinDave 11y agoMostly because Pax never denied the "allegations" and in fact doubled down on his racism and sexism, resulting in a pretty well-earned backlash. As for Eich, his career and finances remain intact. He received censure for doing his job poorly, his career wasn't over.
- BrendanEich 11y agoWhat do you know of my "intact" career or finances, pray tell? As far as I know, you don't know me or anything about what I'm doing for a living, or what my finances look like. Lying by implication is still lying, and _tu quoque_ is no defense. So @PopeOfNope said "careers destroyed", which I agree is overstated in my case if not in Pax's. That does not justify you making stuff up to assert "intact". Since I cannot retire, I'm doing the next thing, and we shall all see how intact I am when it launches. As for "censure", look it up. All the definitions that do not include the essential adjective "official" have to do with judgment, and unofficial judgments like all opinions vary. Mozilla received more criticism from all sides (and still does) than I did over what happened last spring. BTW, I came here via subtweets. Feel free to at-name me directly in the future.
