    @Athena Would you be willing to link this quote for me? I can't find it, but unfortunately can totally believe someone said it.

      @clarfonthey ah yes the anti-fascists are bad because they are too loud and yelly and turn people into fascists by being annoying so anti-fascists need to shut up and play by the fascists rules, got it

      @Athena there's a difference between tone policing and telling people the reality of what's going on

      I've been tone policed to hell and back and I don't want to tell you what to do. the reality though is that it doesn't matter what I tell you to do because I know the effect; the thread is now locked from discussion and neither of us can participate

      does that make you happy?

      like, ultimately, I disagree that playing nice with people is going to be the way to get things done. but I just wanted to let you know just how many people are on the same page with you and to know who you should be putting energy into fighting and who you're just annoying by arguing with

          At least techbros are finally being honest. Wrong and evil, but at least they're honest about it.

            @Athena we all have an extremely finite amount of energy to expend every day and someone who doesn't know what's going on showing up, labelling everyone as cowards, and openly "hoping to get banned" for their actions doesn't do anything but take away that energy we were going to put into action

            like I'm not saying you're wrong for doing this, I'm just saying that you should understand what you're doing

              and what do you think you’re doing by showing up in my mentions uninvited to scold me for shit?

              How effective do you think it would be if I did the same to Mr. Wood?

                  @Athena Looking at it a bit more, the argument against basing their policy on ethics is a direct rejection of Kant's categorical imperative, that you should always act as if your decisions are a model for everyone else in an analogous situation. Kant deliberately doesn't take into account whether you will influence anyone.

                  As with any major ethical school, it's easy to find counterexamples for Kant.

                  But that's not relevant in this case, because the Rust Foundation *is* influential, and denying responsibility fails not just as an abstract question but on practical grounds.

                        I was mad at jyn earlier for seemingly throwing me under the bus to quote him

                        and I'm mad at you because now ultimately I do not have a say in this discussion any more and you do not seem to care

                        but sure. be happy that you've managed to get some clout on social media for complaining to people who already were frustrated with the situation to begin with. I'm not gonna change your mind or even say you were wrong for what you did. I just want you to know that sometimes stirring shit just makes people who were already exhausted more exhausted, and doesn't actually further the cause you were supporting

                                @clarfonthey I genuinely hope you have a nice day and go do something you enjoy for a while today and forget about jackasses on the Internet for a bit.

                                Jyn suggested emailing her with thoughts on the issue, as an alternative route to having a say. As you note: probably more effective than on a public issue if you have a concrete proposal anyway!

                                    @Athena

                                    This list really ought to trigger an "Are we the baddies?" moment.

                                      @clarfonthey I genuinely hope you have a nice day and go do something you enjoy for a while today and forget about jackasses on the Internet for a bit.

                                      Jyn suggested emailing her with thoughts on the issue, as an alternative route to having a say. As you note: probably more effective than on a public issue if you have a concrete proposal anyway!

                                      @Athena oh, rest assured that my day was already ruined before you showed up, I'm just trying to help people understand how actually one-sided this discussion is on the inside despite it being completely stonewalled on the outside

                                      I would apologise but it feels extremely clear this conversation hasn't upset you at all, so, just continue enjoying your day I guess

                                          cited as reason to allow LLM contributions experimentally:

                                          Instead of using ethical concerns as a basis for policy, we should justify policy on the basis of how something is impacting our ability as a project to deliver a really great programming language.

                                          if the orphan grinder lets us make a better programming language then FIRE THOSE BABIES UP
