Why did you successfully try to destroy other people's marriages by donating your money to support Proposition 8? Please explain why you believe same sex couples shouldn't have the same human rights to marry the person they love that you presumably enjoy? Was your own marriage undermined as badly as you intentionally undermined many other people's marriages, after the Supreme Court declared same sex marriage legal?

  Hi Don, you shouldn't jump in here to harass me. BTW, I still have all those Facebook messages you sent years ago, some violent in tone and metaphor, to which I never responded (but I did report to Facebook). Should I publish them here? I was not talking to you, for good and now obvious-to-everyone reasons. You are so unbalanced when it comes to me that you didn't even read the comment above to which you copy-pasted the same blob of text that you've spammed elsewhere on HN, about how I quit and I wasn't fired. The commenter above never said I was fired. You're wrong on "destroy": https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12721891 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12721891 The issue with Prop 8 was the definition of, not right to, state licensed marriage (it proscribed bigamy and polygamy too). Try not inserting your hostile conclusions as premises of your questions. I'm not going to reply further to you.

Harassing can also be considered as opposing the "equality". It is a dangerous path to take part for some specific politics, when the target of those politics are working under the same company. If the employees feels that this brings inequality for them inside the company, it can be considered as harassment, if it is showing in some way. As Mozilla, I referred multiple employees which came with above feelings at that time, and I can say only based on what I read.

  Use a dictionary and stop lying about me: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/harass https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/harass Feelings alone without action cannot be considered harassment, legally or by that definition. Words are the means to meaning, and if you continue to misuse them, no one will talk with you.

    From the dictionary literally: > to create an unpleasant or hostile situation for especially by uninvited and unwelcome verbal or physical conduct If the situation is expressed(felt) by employees as hostile or unwelcome (those who were target of the political view), then by definition it can be considered as harassement, if it is visible somehow. It does not need to go the court to be.

      I never exhibited "verbal or physical conduct". Why are you still lying?
