CENSORSHIP[Censorship] subreddits /programming and /linux pull popular posts about GitHub's CoC (self.KotakuInAction)

supertechnocrat が 投稿

Earlier today posts about GitHub's new pro-feminist additions to their CoC hit programming and linux. They were quickly voted to the top of both subs. Less than an hour later, the linux post is fully gone and the programming post has been delisted from their front page.

I don't have an archive of the linux situation, but here's programming before the censorship where the post in questions sits at #2: https://archive.is/7OlHP

OP: https://archive.is/bYZKB

[update]

/u/its_never_lupus has a link to the linux thread: https://archive.is/2L0KC

[update2]

Looks like it's back up on linux for now. Great example of why we need to stay vigilant about this.

[update3]

Pulled from linux again. Couldn't have people having a discussion now could we?

I'm very angry over this. I've been engaged in the tech community since the 70's! Back then, it was people who had a burning passion for technology. Ethnicity, religion, sexuality, gender (Well that's up to debate), etc etc. That stuff didn't matter! Now it's a bunch of young SJW's who parade around and scream "I was 5 meters next to ZX spectrum and a commodore! I'm a computer scientist now!". Urgh, this makes me sick.

Ethnicity, religion, sexuality, gender (Well that's up to debate), etc etc. That stuff didn't matter!

From The Hacker's Manifesto, circa 1986:

We explore... and you call us criminals.
We seek after knowledge, and you call us criminals.
We exist without skin color, without nationality, without religous bias... and you call us criminals.
You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals.

Yes, I am a criminal.
My crime is that of curiosity.
My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like.
My crime is that of outsmarting you, something you will never forgive me for.

Because the "nerds" and "geeks" got rich and when that happened the casuals wanted in on it.

Plus, the same people made it easier for them but they made it easier for themselves.

[–]paranoiainc 13ポイント14ポイント  (5子コメント)

Not only that, but we made the geek and nerd culture popular. And now all the idiots want in.

I also find it fascinating that now, everyone everywhere played D&D when they were teens. But when asked what does THAC0 stands for they make all kind of excuses.

[–]Schadrach 2ポイント3ポイント  (3子コメント)

You mean To Hit AC 0, the thing replaced by base attack bonus in 3rd edition D&D because it was easier for people to wrap their heads around higher ACs being better and having a modifier onto a die roll to hit a target number rather than a magic number you needed to roll to hit a fixed target number that was then adjusted by both the attacker's bonuses and the defender's actual armor class to get the actual number needed?

Even if you did play D&D as a teen and are old enough that that would mean 2nd or earlier, I can see why you might want to forget THAC0. I'd played a bit of second edition in my teens, and was very happy when 3rd released (when I was in college) because it was so much easier to explain to new players when higher generally means better, the same general mechanic is used to resolve most actions, and everything didn't have it's own seemingly unrelated subsystems.

These days I play Pathfinder, mostly because I didn't like 4th.

[–]paranoiainc 0ポイント1ポイント  (2子コメント)

Yeah. I stopped playing just before the 3rd edition. I think Neverwinter Nights was the first game implementing the 3d edition. But it's foggy.

Never played before 3rd ed so only familar with this in passing. I wouldn't exactly use this as a filter because I started playing when I was a teen and I'm nearly 30 now.

One day, I asked my programming professor what he had against Java because anytime sometime mentioned Java, he'd cut them off right there. He went on a pretty relevant speech.

Almost all power in the world is controlled by the elites. Programming is the one place they don't control because everyone can contribute, anyone can code. They don't like that. This is the one place the little man has control. Java is them trying to take control away from us.

[–]rottingchrist 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

For all the SJWs' blithering about money being evil and geeks being privileged, it's the geeks who give away their work for free and have created a prominent example of a largely money-less marketplace, the open source community. It's mostly geeks who care about net neutrality and recognize the danger of internet censorship. It's amazing how much high quality free software and internet services are out there for people to use without any payment over what they do for regular internet service.

The tech industry/community is probably the most diverse you can find. I've worked in small teams (3-4 devs) where literally no two developers were of the same ethnicity.

But the SJWs would ruin something so great just for their own pound of flesh.

he also met the creator of quicksort and told him that he could do better. He did.

It was like anyone famous in programming he had a story about meeting them at confrenses, fighting with them, and then telling them he could write something better than them. I think there was one person, I forget who, but he challenged them, and I asked if he wrote something better, "not yet."

well I had things come up and had to drop the class and move out of state. too bad because he was legit. He stories checked out too.

Another interesting thing about him, he had been working in the industry since the 70s, he has pictures of himself in Vietnam laying on his rack with a programming book in his hands, and he mentioned female co-works as far back as then. In the 80s he had a female partner that he worked with for 10 years. That right there destroys the narative that STEM fields are hostile environments for women.

Well, going against the narrative is doubleplusungood. We should reach out to the tech community and help them resist, because it's exactly the same people that is trying to coopt gaming trying to coopt opensource.

[–]mansplain 17ポイント18ポイント  (3子コメント)

Gaming is arguably sort of a pointless endeavor in comparison to the open source community..

Like, its one thing to call a bunch of people racist misogynerds because they play games that have white people and boobs in them, its something completely different to program into the coding community that whites, males, and heteros are literally fair game not just to be harassed and exploited in the community, but in the actual usages, application and distribution of the software.

[–]Interlapse[🍰] 15ポイント16ポイント  (2子コメント)

Well, it's true that gaming is a hobby, and nothing else, but if the SJWs get their way, games are going to be boring and educative, which basically means games will be centered around social critique from a SJW point of view. The potential to "educate" young people on "social issues" is really big.

At this rate SJW are going to co-opt everything. First they tried atheism, then gaming, now technology. I always thought that it would be better if the people against SJW co-option from different communities came together and supported each other. The last time this was brought up people talked about mission creep, but right now it's not like we're doing much and seeing how they're hitting tech, we might need to reconsider it.

I've moved over to Gitlab. I've been seeing a lot of people suggesting Gitgud, but Gitlab's interface and option to host my own gitlab is pretty fantastic.

Also, free private repos. /shill

EDIT: rethinking this after seeing /u/frankenmine's list of providers. I just set everything up nicely too. Fuck.

[–]frankenmine/r/WerthamInAction - #ComicGate 15ポイント16ポイント  (8子コメント)

You'll always be on a knife's edge at GitLab. You'll never know when they'll cut you off, or even what for. They've been infiltrated by the same SJW cancer that GitHub currently suffers from.

The supported and neutral providers on the list show no indication of such risk, so they're a better choice from a purely utilitarian perspective, even if you don't care about any of the politics involved.

[–]codeGrit 4ポイント5ポイント  (6子コメント)

See, I don't look at the removing of the GamerGateOP project as proof GitLab was infected by the SJW cancer. At the time it was removed, GamerGate was a HUGE hot button issue. For a small source control site, competing with GitHub, public image is vitally important. It was was most likely the best business decision, given all the negative press surrounding GG at the time (which still continues today, as we all know).

Now, if they go and adopt that same lame ass excuse for a Code of Conduct.. that'd be a different story. This all my opinion, obviously :)

[–]frankenmine/r/WerthamInAction - #ComicGate 12ポイント13ポイント  (5子コメント)

They lied saying that the repo contained harassing content when it didn't. I don't think that's excusable under any circumstances.

[–]codeGrit 3ポイント4ポイント  (4子コメント)

I don't disagree. I just know companies lie all the time, and I tend not to expect them to be truthful.

I'd be less forgiven if I felt comfortable using GitGud. But the problem with GitGud is it's pretty associated with GamerGate. That means someone like me wouldn't really be able to share my work with colleagues and shit without the risk of pissing off the wrong people. I don't have a clue if I work with "wrong people", but I don't want to find out lol.

The "neutral" sites are pretty shit compared to the simplicity of GitHub / GitLab / BitBucket.

Yeah, but the problem is when I go "Hey co-worker, check out this project of mine. (links to GitGud)." I run the risk of them being a radical progressive/SJW.. and you know how they like to treat people that think differently.

[–]frankenmine/r/WerthamInAction - #ComicGate 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

Don't use GitGud, then. Use any of the countless other options. If you have a little spare cash, set up GitLab (or whatever else) on your own box, there are some options at the very bottom.

Nobody said protesting was going to be as easy as not protesting. What makes it preferable is that it's the right thing to do.

I get that some people believe that institutional discrimination needs to be fought above all else. I suppose it's just different priorities.

But right now, the social justice crowd is placing itself in a position where they have the institutional power to exclude anyone they perceive as having the wrong kind of politics from projects that have nothing to do with such politics, and kind, gullible geeks are letting them because they are easily guilted in believing they cannot have an opinion on this because they are not a certain race, gender, sexual orientation or sexual identity.

Despite those that are placing themselves in these positions of power being themselves overwhelmingly white cis hetero males.

The people that have already opened up the thread can still see it and talk about it, but no one outside the hardcore posters has any idea. So people that don't necessarily have skin in the game but could benefit from knowing about this crazy bullshit are essentially cut out of the loop, and people pointing out censorship no longer have the convenience of pointing to like a thousand [deleted]s to show it.

If anyone's curious:

  • /r/linux allows off-topic posts all the time.
  • The 3rd top post of all time is nothing similar to this -- sourceforge (a free software host somewhat similar to github) distributes malware and hijacks user accounts
  • The 5th top post of all time is about the guy who does email encryption not having any money
  • The 11th top post of all time is about Lenovo installing malware on their machines
  • The 13th top post is about Netflix supporting HTML5

And on and on...

The point is, /r/linux allows many posts -- that have little or nothing to do with linux. The fact that the 3rd top post of all time is about a similar issue -- the policies/abuse of a free software host -- demonstrates that this removal very much is because someone with authority in /r/linux is a butthurt SJW who doesn't feel safe with this post being left up.

My guess, based on posting history, is that it's /u/kylev . I have no proof of this, but he's one of the more active mods, and his post history includes discussion of transgenderism and posts being removed. He denies being the one to remove the posts, but color me skeptical. Perhaps he technically didn't do the actual button clicking that removed the posts, but he seems to defend post removals.

BONUS: He's also a mod of /r/programming, which is the other place this topic has been silenced.

BONUS BONUS: He's also a mod of /r/atheismplus .

(EDIT:) BONUS BONUS BONUS: He's participated in /r/GamerGhazi

I think I've found the culprit, boys! /u/kylev at ~90% certainty for SJW prick silencing toxic threads that threaten his narrative of justice and equality.

Github hosts more open source projects than anything else. Thousands of devs use the website from Ubuntu to Archlinux to program developers.

[–]sryii 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

GitHub is a major repository for code and open source project collaboration and management(not sure on the last bit ). For programming this is obviously a topic, primarily in regards to telling people what lines of text they can and can not have in their code. For Linux which is open source and the public OS's typically have a lot of collaboration on the distro itself as well as programs that work in a Linux environment. These changes are occurring in a popular platform used by members of both subreddits and there isn't a great reason not to let one thread be open on both

[–]onlyzul 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

I'd agree, but the mods over at /r/linux basically let anything related to open source fly. Other open source OSes, open source games, Richard Stallman singing a song, a podcast about a blog post about donating money, etc.

So, while you could argue this isn't very relevant to Linux, it's as relevant as most of the other stuff posted there.

Frankly, I'm surprised they took this down. Must be one particular SJW mod or something, because they're really hands-off about moderation over there.

This isn't a feminist thing - it's a SocJus thing. SJWs are the Westboro Baptist Church of feminism. The WBC is loud, anger-inducing, and utterly insane in the name of Catholicism. They didn't represent Christianity and SJWs don't represent feminism.

Westboro can't go anywhere without dozens to hundreds of protesters, they're universally reviled.

Where's the feminist response to SJW's? The answer is it doesn't exist. Feminists who aren't SJW's are considered MRAs and antifeminists by feminists, just look at based mom.

Unless I'm much mistaken, isn't Baptist a subset of Catholic (much the way Episcopal is a subset of Protestant)?

[–]vintermann 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

Yes, you're very much mistaken. Baptists are protestants.

Yeah the SJWs spouting what they learned in their gender studies' courses don't represent feminism.

Please.

SJWs and feminism is synonymus. Sorry to say that.

Reading through the comments on there.... Why does everyone get the definition of 'reverse racism' wrong?

It doesn't mean "white people being discriminated against", it's members of one race being discriminated against by members of the same race in favour of a member of another race. An 'affirmative action' hire when there is a white person going for the same job with the same qualifications would be the textbook definition.

I'm not saying I agree or disagree with the sentiment, I just want people to actually know what they're arguing against.

So according to your definition, a black director and producer hiring a white slavic actress to portray a character originally supposed to be black is affirmative action and considered reverse racism?

Jesus, that's a specific examples. Why was she hired?

Still not "reverse racism".

I have no idea what bastardized meaning that you have for it, but that was what was meant when the term was coined.
