momentarily··on Brendan Eich Steps Down as Mozilla CEO
You disenfranchised him of employment, which has very physical repercussions.

Yes, you very much physically attacked this man.

What's the sound of one person getting married?

It is a witch hunt. He didn't do anything illegal.

Your moral judgment concerns no one but you. It is binding on no one but you.

You are a bigot. Everyone that is complicit in disenfranchising this man of employment because of his political opinions is a bigot.

Political persecution doesn't just happen in the third world. It also happens here. And it's a crime against humanity wherever it happens.

You are responsible for what you did. I am holding you responsible for your actions. I am holding you responsible for what you did to this man.

No, Eich's $1000 didn't singlehandedly determine a law. It's peanuts. It's nothing. On the other hand, this witch hunt did singlehandedly disenfranchise him of hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of employment.

There is no comparison.

I, personally, have an issue with witch hunts, with McCarthyism, with bigotry.

Eich's persecution for his beliefs was bigotry.

Everyone complicit in it is a bigot.

I am calling you out as complicit in the witch hunt against Eich, whih you are. It is as simple as that.

Mobbing someone out of employment isn't a right, either.

The Catholic Church said as much to Galileo.

Don't play dumb. All of this so-called "activism" is meant to put pressure on Mozilla to fire Eich. It is a witch hunt. And you are complicit.

SJWs will find a problem with absolutely anyone and anything. You can never please SJWs. The only winning move is not to negotiate with them at all.

That's the endgame for this entire witch hunt against him.
momentarily··on Microsoft Will Soon Bring Back The Start Menu In Windows 8.1
Metro should have been device-aware (and still, toggleable) from the very beginning.

You can't impose a touch interface on desktop devices any more than you can impose a desktop interface on touch devices. Microsoft tried that, too, with Windows CE. It didn't work so well.

Trying to oust Brendan Eich out of his professional position because you don't like his personal opinions is SJW-style bigotry and harassment. It's an example of everything that is wrong with the SJW scene. You don't try to convince people through civil debate (and just give up if you can't), you insult/bully/harass/mob/threaten/disenfranchise people into accepting your position. This is beyond the pale.

None of this is relevant. You made a baseless allegation. There is no grounds for claiming that Eich is against gays.

Isn't it just theft of services?
momentarily··on Why I switched back to Google Chrome over Mozilla’s new CEO
Right. It doesn't state "death to all gays".
momentarily··on Why I switched back to Google Chrome over Mozilla’s new CEO
Oh, enough with this shit already.

Stop spamming Hacker News with your insane activism, which is nothing more than bigotry under the guise of anti-bigotry.

Take this shit back to the SJW ghettoes of tumblr, where it belongs.
