Speaking out loud. We failed as human beings to support each other. We have an idea what is good what is bad, but we are not fixing issues.
* We know child abuse is bad, but we can't stop child slavery and theft in India, because we like cheap products coming from there and local governments like getting bribes for being silent
* We know genocide is bad, but we can't stop China what it is doing to Uyghurs, because we like cheap products coming from China.
* We know people should have equal rights, but we can't do anything when it comes Palestinian people, you can boycott any product from any country, but not from Israel (legally)
* We know man and woman should have equal opportunities and rights, we are hiring more woman because we need to fill diversity forms, in the meantime others are seeking job for months.
* We know racism is bad. But we are discussing if Git repo's should be named master or main.
And we are trying to fix environmental issues for years already. This is unfortunate, but Nature kind of healed some parts of it already, in just one year (because of quarantine measures and less transportation)
- galangalalgol 6y agoIt isn't illegal to boycott Israel, it is illegal for some states to contract labor from people that boycott Israel. Still not good, but an important distinction. On Git, are you saying we should obviously do away with the term master? Or that we are arguing about unimportant nonsense when we should be talking about what measures would decrease racially motivated violence and the opportunity gap? I agree with the latter.
