This is absolutely unbelievable.

This is not a simple political issue, it is a personal human issue. It
is a social issue. It is a justice issue. It seems quite obvious to me
that this is different than if they had put a fundraiser for a candidate
for office, for instance, in a banner.
It amazes me how often people come out of
Major correction, this is not the .org I was thinking of. I have no knowledge
that what I said is the case with the EJI.

I agree it is an important social issue, but in this particular case I believe
the funds are directed to specific political parties so the boundary between
supporting social issues and political contributions is murky. I am not saying
it shouldn’t be done but it should be more transparent.

I took Jan Mercl's suggestion and wrote the short function to see if
it is useful. It is based on C Banning's suggested code. I'm going to
start using it on my projects to see if it helps.
The module is called "hind":https://github.com/TomOnTime/hind

Recently, a political message with a fundraising link appeared as a banner
atop golang.org websites: https://golang.org/, https://pkg.go.dev/.

Thanks Sam for the details
Now it makes sense and I can see where it is coming from.

Except now sharing links to golang.org, or showing those web pages at
events, could be argued as advocating for a foreign political cause. And
that's illegal in much of the world. Per google, google operates in 219
countries. This could force community members to argue in any of at least
219
As evidence for not needing the next layer of abstraction, I offer Django
class-based-views. The go approach is much more understandable and easier
to follow.

They are directed to the Equal Justice Initiative which is a non-profit.
In the united states 501(c)3 not-for-profit organizations are barred
from certain kinds of political speech including endorsing individual
parties or candidates. The banner does not point to any particular
political party.
Amen Tom.. hard to believe that those who determine what Go syntax is, and
is not, have yet to alter this uniquely awkward feature of the Go
language.

You could start here. If the Go team is comfortable putting a banner in its
support on the page, they might do so.

No, it is *inherently* political
I noticed a kind of circularity in the arguments around this issue. The simple
"inline the if block" issue was created and rejected earlier:
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/27135 -- in part because the central issue
of error handling logic was supposed to be resolved by some other upcoming
Equating not supporting this and supporting marginalized groups is not correct.
You can support marginalized groups all day and disagree on how best to do so.
It doesn’t have to be political at all.

I never said once that what the Go team was wrong, or not within their rights -
all I ever called for was transparency so people can educated decisions on the
subject. After more research into EJI I even stated I was wrong about possible
political affiliations in this case.
Maybe you were

This sounds like a great idea to me. It would probably need to be a
non-profit that furthers the Go
What makes you think this is somehow politics and not simply supporting
an important not-for-profit at a time when it's particularly relevant
and important to do so? I don't see anything political about the topic
unless you count that some of the solutions are political (but this one,

the Go Team and the Go Project are composed of people and expressing an

It is the injection of politics into a list where politics does not belong.
Kindly perform your virtue signalling elsewhere.
