- jcelerier 7y agoI would in general agree if some systemd core team members weren't receiving actual death threats. When this becomes a common occurence you have to wonder what are the systemic causes for that. Or do you also think that far-right-wing people should not be called out for the wrongness when their community repeatedly fails to condemn and take action for years leading the extremist faction to eventually run over people (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlottesville_car_attack https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlottesville_car_attack) ?
- JdeBP 7y agoFrom tarring everyone with the same brush you have gone on to overgeneralizing from one incident. One person made one comment about hiring a hitman, once, just under seven years ago in an IRC channel. It is a fallacy to extend that to everyone else. * https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8417369 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8417369 This is a very poor show.
