Based on the title alone, anyone who gets offended by this has not read what GitLab actually states in their "values" page.
In case you don't want to go dig for it here it is:
https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/values/#religion-and-politics-at-work- https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/values/#religion-and-polit...
TL;DR: it says that generally there shouldn't be discussions about religion or politics on PUBLIC forums, but that such discussions are OK in social context, like during coffee breaks. Also goes to say to keep in mind not to exclude people due to their minority political/religious views.
This seems very reasonable and this whole issue seems almost like a hit piece. GitLab hasn't done anything wrong, but since their world view isn't completely black and white like people-in-the-current-year should have according to the same people who get offended time after time from the most minute things (and even about things that happened decades ago) they must be bad.
