Linux Code of Conduct claims a victim
(1/7) > >>
daqq:
In short: Due to a bizarre reaction from person X who saw person Y in a MAGA hat, person Y has been dis-invited from a Linux conference by the Linux Foundation.

This is how linux (and freedom) can die.
Stray Electron:
  I agree with Robert Martin's letter, The Linux Foundation had no business responding to a public complaint or in responding to it publicly and in both cases, they themselves committed violations of their own Code of Conduct.  I also don't see how the victim, Mr Wood, committed any violation of the Code of Conduct by wearing a MAGA hat.  This country has always believed in the Freedom of Speech and I believe that the original complaint and the Linux Foundation's public response and their subsequent banning My Wood from their event are all clear violations of his Right to Freedom of Speech.

   The Linux Foundation can go F*** themselves!

The Linux "community" at large, need to get a life and grow up, and also keep out of the affairs of grown ups. Is it any surprise that this collective have never made it to the mainstream with a TRULY successful commercial, uniform, predictable product? These morons are too busy bickering over window managers and "the proper way" to do package management.

This is the "community" you're dealing with:
