The comments were heated, but specifically I see things like referring to the terms "person of color" and "PoC" as "ridiculous", followed up by an example meant to mock the terms. Those are terms which are widely used by people both to self-identify and to talk about issues they face as a result of their racial background. If you believe that calling it "ridiculous" and mocking it is acceptable behavior, then I think the divide between your conception of "acceptable" and the community's definition of "acceptable" may be a bit too large for any meaningful discussion to take place. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
