I did not find it very hard to assume a not-the-worst-possible reading of the comment. What's with the comment police here lately that's labeling various comments? I hope this ain't becoming the new twitter
- mulmen 5y agoAre you aware of what “water the tree of liberty” references? It is a Thomas Jefferson quote: “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” In the context of January 6th it’s hard to make a leap to metaphorical server blood. Datacenters still have people inside them, no mention of servers was made. Only a quote from a man who waged a real war. > tech workers are replaceable. Speaking as a tech worker, no, my life is not replaceable. > I did not find it very hard to assume a not-the-worst-possible reading of the comment. The not-the-worst-possible reading being what? Mobs attacking data centers? > What's with the comment police here lately that's labeling various comments? I hope this ain't becoming the new twitter I feel the same way. So let's tone down the rhetoric. If this post was metaphorical hyperbole it is the kind that got a president impeached.
