Linux kernel coders propose inclusive terminology coding guidelines, note: 'Arguments about why people should not be offended do not scale'

Stupid is as stupid does...

Injecting superfluous content and directives, suggestions, or even well meaning intentions into everyday life to accommodate merely the latest in a long and never ending line of fads is... Yup! Just plain stupid.

It changes nothing that should be changed and exists solely as a distraction from that which the discussion was actually supposed to be about in the first place lol.

Did you hear the latest? Taco Bell is now changing their name because it has proven to be offensive to people with vaginas.

Meanwhile, chokeholds are still legal and all serious legislation to thwart the abuses and crimes against humanity and human kind through the rampant imposition of police brutality upon members of all creeds and cultures has stalled, is largely ignored, and is soon to be forgotten as the agenda of the day - the very topic that has culminated in, as a distraction from the real Injustice, this silly war of semantics now being waged instead...

This too shall pass, but in the meantime, know that y'all been distracted, redirected, interrupted, from the thing that actually did matter... "COPS KILLING PEOPLE WITH IMPUNITY".

Stupid is as stupid does people

BDSM sex rocks Drupal world: Top dev banished for sci-fi hanky-panky

Fail hard for Dries, Megan, and Klaus - all three need to go and go now!

This sort of affair exposes the farce of bothering to have any sort or organizational facade surrounding a so-called BDFL (aka Dries). He owns the trademark, he's the founder and CTO (conveniently) of Acquia, and he alone selects and appoints volunteers to the Drupal CWG.

Does that sound a little Soviet to you? Well it should. Because it is, and it should come as no surprise that they've been exposed as thought police for an association that is NOT managed by it's members, but rather, a despot.

It's time to Fork Drupal, if Dries and his other two cronies don't resign and leave the camp completely for the community to salvage, and it may be time to fork Drupal anyway, as it appears to be a dying project under the tutelage of a despot.
