Scrolling down this thread and reading the flagged and greying comments makes my blood boil all over again.
To quote one (awful) take,
> I’ll care when women worry about misandry.
Want to see the perpetuation of misogyny in the tech industry occurring in real time? Just take a skim through the rationalization, defensiveness, and whataboutism littering the bottom and following pages of this thread. This is a community including a high proportion of engineers and engineering leadership and the problems endemic to our industry are on full display in this filing and in the responses posed by more than a few members of this community.
If anyone reading this is privileged enough to have been insulated from these problems before, has truly been skeptical about whether this is a problem in our field today: this should be all the proof you need.
Edit: Enough users have opted to downvote this comment that it now sits at -2 and I think I am entitled to at least a reply explaining why.
- rodgerd 5y agoHN is /r/kotakuinaction level commentary on this. Which is not even surprising, really.
- ajnin 5y agoI guess the reason you're being downvoted is that you're complaining about comments which have already been downvoted, which brings nothing to the discussion, and also you're drawing conclusions about a community that does not exist.
