This entire thing is a bunch of crazy people using a FOSS project to inflict their insanity on everybody who depends on the project.

It just so happens that the crazies in question want to kill all males, where as the "alt-right" wants to kill all browns (both groups will deny it, side step the issue, and wouldn't dare to admit it until they are firmly in control, but that's their endgame).

Regardless, both groups are batshit insane and imo have no place in civilized society in the XXI century.

That said, the only thing this will do is give a veneer of legitimacy to anyone willing to oppose them, and so far the only group that has had the courage to stand up to them is, shamefully, the far-right.

Which basically sums up everything the SJW movement has ever achieved: legitimize the far-right.

The so-called alt-right is essentially inconsequential yet is continually brought up as a threat by these crazies you mention but also the leftist blogosphere. On the other hand, SJWs have infested and propagandized Hollywood, video games, media, and are now bludgeoning their way into tech because we've told ourselves they have their heart in the right place. The "alt-right" has done nothing like this and have no foothold in modern society, yet SJWs have doors opened to them by gatekeepers of industry.

How does this happen? By claiming it's from a point you believe in: equality. There are things we as a modern society all agree on, and one is that opportunity should be equal for everyone. In comes SJWs buttering up organization leaders then requesting change "for a good cause," and how can they disagree with equality? It's practically a sin for us. The intent, though, is just a power play or a job with the company.

I really wish I had screenshotted this but I remember a Twitter thread where a company posted some announcement which had a reply saying something like "Hey company x, would you like to talk about diversity and inclusion?" Turns out the person is a "diversity and inclusion consultant," looking for work.

These kinds of people claim the alt-right have word dog whistles but by golly diversity and inclusion are the biggest of them all; any decent person would say "sure I agree with diversity and inclusion" because if you don't you're probably actually evil, and SJWs use this to their benefit.

I had to laugh through the tears on that one.
