Got a rigorous analysis anywhere backing the assertion that GitHub's failures are due to '"inclusive" practices'?

Do YOU have any rigorous analysis that "inclusive" practices like insulting white people by saying "white middle managers can't have empathy" in internal company presentations increases profitability and success at a company?

Nope, but I didn't make that assertion, so you appear to be strawmanning.

The way you phrased your question made it sound like you were snarkily implying that, yes. If that's not what you were doing, ignore my comment and move on.

The original OP was clearly flamebaiting with an ideological angle, no less ideological than the viewpoint it opposed. I was merely shining light to that by using that post's exact phrasing.

The snark you are inferring is completely imagined. Your original comment is also flamebaiting by adding a complete strawman that is also ideological. Please cease politicizing this discussion.

This account has been using HN primarily for political arguments. That's an abuse of this site, so please don't do that.

Well, I wrote about the problem some time ago albeit very briefly.

Thank you for providing substantive information about the internal workings at GitHub.

It's almost as if I am judging a company by what they say. Shocking.

That wasn't a sarcastic comment. Since you actually worked at the company, I give you more credit than these outside political commentators.
