This puts into very simple words my opposition to orgs like Mozilla making outreach for women, minorities and whatever else the flavour of the month is in California a part of their goals. Doubly so since they have been loosing market share every quarter for 10 years.
Stick to doing the one thing you're meant to be doing. We don't need a dozen organizations to be chasing whatever is popular right now - poorly - we need organizations that follow the course regardless of what happens.

If a web browser company wants to make "outreach for women" (whatever that means) something they strive for that's perfectly fine unless it undermines their other goals. Telling people in the middle of a pandemic to gather in large groups for chanting and screaming is a bad look for an origination whose purpose is to promote people's health. If Mozilla went around looking for ways to encourage women to take an interest in open source browser development that could easily support their interests.
