- erikb 12y agoThis is the first time I see a response to such complaint that might even leave the social justice fighters happy. Some people feel hurt and they get a sorry and the promise that this won't happen again, and at the same time the person who said it is validated by asking for his opinion and realising that like most of the time it was not meant to hurt anybody. I'm quite proud of that post and the Python community.
- WhitneyLand 12y agoAre you saying there was no merit in the original complaint? It sounds like you are using SJF as a pejorative term.
- erikb 12y agoI'm trying to say that everybody has a valid point and instead of fighting over who wins all sides are recognized.
- WhitneyLand 12y agoThe common refrain of "hey why do you people need your own silly subgroup"? I guess viewed charitably this could be taken as "From my perspective there is no division between any of us so I don't understand the need for a subgroup". But if that were the case why would does no one question groups based on geography? If these guys heard of of a new club called Downtown Pythoners, I don't guess they would have joked "hey, why don't we create our own group called Uptown Pythoners, ha ha ha".
