I have no idea what the issue is with Slashdot regarding racism and hate-speech, but I do find it interesting that you want the current owner held responsible for it and also for the prior owners actions at Sourceforge which the current owner stopped over 6 years ago upon gaining ownership of Sourceforge.
- lizardactivist 4y agoYou have clearly never read Slashdot, or you would know that the comments section has always been filled with racism and similar trash talk, much more recently than the 6 years you mention. They also never act on those reported comments, which I know because I reported hateful comments daily. But please explain to us why we should hold the owner company in high regards.
- ChoGGi 4y agoSlashdot has always cared more about freedom of speech then censoring of speech.
- lizardactivist 4y agoBut do you think freedom of speech should mean the ability to use racist and hateful language?
- soupbowl 4y agoStop going to Slashdot, problem solved.
- tssva 4y agoI never said they should be held in high regard. I said it was interesting that you wanted to judge them by both their current actions at one site but by a previous owners actions at another. I also find it interesting that in your final sentence you used plural pronouns as though there were a larger group than just yourself behind your comment.
- lizardactivist 4y agoOf course, I am fully confident that other readers are with me and share the opinion that the current owner's disregard for racist talk on Slashdot is questionable.
