OK, what? I'm (a) not someone with "progressive" politics (b) can't stand diversity and inclusion stuff, (c) don't believe in progressive dogma about workplace environments being the reason for poor representation of women and minorities in tech.

But the presence of this thread on HN and the pathetic pornographic content in the linked IRC logs, recording the puerile online conversations of a bunch of awkward teenage males, makes me start to doubt everything I said in my first paragraph.

dang/mods -- I think this thread should be removed from the front page.
