Hello,
I allow me to restate again I am not the original poster of the
(harmless) joke.
I am asking for (more) tolerance.
Now Richard Schneeman sends on r/ruby where I have myself
self-censored because of an anti-crypto mob (the irony is that I am a
crypto-critic - by the way - and try to educate with code examples the
absurdity of it all and so on).
Anyways, for the record lets post the message of the r/ruby ban:
You have been permanently banned from participating in r/ruby.
You can still view and subscribe to r/ruby, but you won't be able to post or
comment.Note from the moderators:
Yesterday I spoke with the mods on giving you a warning based on your
behavior on the Ruby mailing list. I believe you listened to my feedback and
stopped posting about crypto. So we decided to make explicit where we sit
regarding things that happen off of Reddit.Today I [Richard Schneeman] see you posting this Political thought - Leader on the threat from the illiberal left - Don’t underestimate the danger of left-leaning identity politics - #36 by Gerald_Bauer1. I see that someone said that a joke was harmful to them. I'm disgusted reading the joke. I'm frustrated for my community. I see my co-workers face sexist remarks, and I see them burning out and quitting the programming community. I need programming and especially Ruby, to be inclusive and welcoming. I need programmers not to intentionally post harmful and hateful content.
I see others have already warned you several times against this behavior.
It does not appear those warnings produced a meaningful
change in your behavior.
.How absurd. Meanigful change in your behavior. I am asking for
tolerance and for sure that is not negotiable.
Anyways, not expecting any meaningful change from Richard
Schneeman. To repost my answer for the record:
If you follow / read the thread I am NOT the original poster of the
joke. I am just advocating / asking for tolerance. But reading your
comments above it looks like you are on a "mission". You are targeting
the wrong random nobody (and remember every action will have reactions
and so on). And I thought you are acting in good faith. Helas.
Cheers. Prost.
