I have gotten the impression over the last few years that the Tor Project has embraced social justice and diversity to the detriment of their software.


I find that when I come across comments or jokes that might expose biases, rather than interrogate the person you can expose those by just asking the simplest questions, the ones that seem too obvious to ask. When someone says a joke that might be described as biased, usually using a more particular word, just ask them to explain the joke. That usually is more revealing than calling its speaker a name.

So, I don't want to infer your opinions, but I want to ask: what about social justice and diversity is to the detriment of their software?


People said the same about Mozilla, but FF is doing just fine.


It's more important to support FF for a million reasons than not support them because of their internal culture.

Remove those reasons and I would prefer a more open culture and prefer less toxic and would switch browsers to support single thought vs group think.


This is led some credence by the fact that the Tails website links to riseup.net, which hosts Rose City Antifa.
