</span>What exactly are you saying here? When someone acts in a way that seems<br>
racist and says "next you'll be trying to call me a fucking racist" do you<br>
think we should lie about the fact that their actions do seem racist?<br>
<br>
I don't think that we should be required to accept alternate points of view<br>
that discriminate against other people. I don't think we should accept<br>
racism, sexism, homophobia, or transphobia.</blockquote><div><br></div><div>I think that if you have a problem with the values of Linux Australia you should either advocate changing its values to remove tolerance, or you should find another community that supports your view on homogeneity.</div><div>-- <br></div></div><div class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div>Michael Davies <a href="mailto:michael@the-davies.net" target="_blank">michael@the-davies.net</a><br><br></div></div></div>
