I guess these are the juicy details they are choosing to omit - https://archive.fo/f10KK

That happen 2017, one could assume the ex moderation team was already aware who people in the organization are/were at that point.

That seems to be node.js drama... not sure what it has to do with rust.

The same people are -- well, the same person is -- on the Rust core team.

That is an extremely GamerGate-smelling list. Quotes are misinterpreted, overreacted to, and/or taken out of context.

That list does not contain juicy details; it does contain a level of grime that I figured would mean it would be left in the past as a historical GamerGate artifact and not pulled up in the Rust community in 2021.

>overreacted to, and/or taken out of context.

change the race and/or sex in those quotes

that's not how minorities and/or affirmitive action work?

thank you for your bold take, throwaway2077

so those quotations would be unacceptable if they were aimed at any other group, regardless of context and without statute of limitation, correct?

I could make a point by citing some examples here, but I would probably get banned.
