> Even if someone is anti-trans, it should be clear that in the current political climate, openly expressing these views is a career death sentence. I don't want to be the one responsible for someone's career death sentence, but it _is_ posted on a public mailing list: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2016-09/msg00055.html https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libreboot/2016-09/msg0005... 1) Trans person is qualified for job 2) Hiring a trans person is now risky because of a perception of a potential "shitstorm" should "something" happen 3) Admission that this perceived risk exists regardless of the trans person's experience, aptitude, or temperament. Is this not a textbook example of discrimination? Edit: used "risk exists" instead of awkward phrasing "risk is true"
