Because it started in the eighties and we didn't have Reddit to make shitposts about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/dfmgst/oc_a_quick_look_at_todays_reddit_storm/ https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/dfmgst/oc_... I remember it being mentioned in the "Work rules" book by that Google guy. They had a desert in their canteen called "Free Tibet Goji-Chocolate Creme Pie..." in the canteen. They said "well, the food is free, and the berries come from Tibet, so ..." Trying to be cheeky. But several people threatened to quit over this, and they had a huge discussion on the internal mailing list with over 1300 replies. The chef who created it got suspended, and then people got worried because of the chilling effect that this would have on free speech. Eventually the suspension was reversed. Very dramatic.
