Calling people names won't change much. Although I sympathized with Linus' message in some of his comments, its form was, let's be frank, hard to tolerate. If you had a workmate who was highly competent but would scream at you "what is this brainfucked shit" etc., I guess it wouldn't be a nice place to work. At least I personally avoid such people and in the worst cases just leave. And I'm saing this in spite of the fact I admire Linus and agree with the actual contents of his inflammatory posts.
> Open source is now woke. That's all.
"Open source" is a wide term. You are right that there are many especially younger developers, and especially from the USA who are emphasizing certain aspects like inclusivity etc. I agree that the effects of their efforts might be debatable but saying "open source is now woke" is an overstatement. Not to mention that many projects are run by old-timers who not necessarily agree with whatever is en vogue now but don't consider it necessary to make all their views public.
We just never called it woke back in the 1990/2000's ;)
2, Hermaphrodite & Intersex have been around for a looooooooong time. as I assume you mean sex (languages changes, gender these days doesn't mean physical/biological sex anymore)
3, your nick is pretty relevant in this case.
Of course I'm open to debate point 2, as I can surely be wrong. but it still has nothing to do with this conversation ;)
Debatable. But that was part of the problem as you already know. These code of conducts never solved anything and just created more problems.

Not all of it. But let's not go down that route, please.
