> That's no reason to accept unacceptable behaviour. We should be working to make things better for everyone. We should be helping people who have good contributions. Saying that startups are stressful becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. What is unacceptable to you is likely completely acceptable to a different group of people, especially when we are talking about workplace environments. Phrased another way, why should a small, committed group of people who get along very well with a particular workplace culture be forced to change it and shunned by 'the community', not because they are actually doing anything illegal or actively putting up barriers to entry for a certain group of people, but because someone, somewhere, in some sort of underrepresented group might not like the culture?
