Re: "I never thought of muting the Linux subspace before, but it..."
I think it's a good idea to identify actions that make one 'feel better' about very real and often tragic subjects, and actually taking action to improve or eliminate injustice.
As someone who pointed out the futility and even selfishness of such activity, I expected I would draw fire.
I don't think discussing the underlying issues is helpful or even possible, as long as you feel that not uttering and outright banning particular words makes past or current transgressions disappear, or less impactful.
Maybe you feel powerless, that any real action and resolution is not possible, and that banning random words is at least doing something.

As a person of color, it still makes me sad that black and white people can't even come to a proper conclusion about this kind of topic, mainly because it's really difficult to solve.

I never thought of muting the Linux subspace before, but it seems like it's a good idea today. 馃槄
