I never heard of that! Here is the secondary problem - GitHub sides with these people called Social Justice Warriors. Basically, if you make a bad joke on Twitter, or say something that gaming journalists are shills - they harass your employers and ruin your life. GitHub supports and protects these people. They will censor anyone with an opinion that doesn't speak glowingly of their politics. Make a joke about feminists? Your repo gets shuts down. A user makes a joke about cross-dressing on twitter? SJW's find him on twitter, look up his repository and harass his issues until he concedes to merging a code of conduct. The people didn't even use his software. This is like persecution. I don't care what people do behind close doors - but I don't like the idea of being guilt-tripped to show enthusiasm about any political idea. That's not professional or what open source is about.

One correction there. The SJWs found the person on Twitter, looked up the project he contributed to and demanded that he be removed as a contributor

  What in that is different, I didn't know they wanted to remove him. You can't really do that. And if you did as an outsider you'd be laughed out. By the way, the project was Opal, I can't find the issue in question to see. Do you have it?
