I am tired of relitigating the same fights I have in the streets in watered down form on the internet.
-
It's not really a secret that right now, tech stuff is bland and flavorless to me. I just fought Nazis. I just helped change the world.
-
But part of that flavorlessness is because existing in tech is just such a bland version of those same fights, over and over.

At least while facing fascists in the streets I can yell and swear and not get mired in respectability.

This isn't limited to Node. As always, the majority of people in a community are amazing folks.

This happened with Drupal. And Ruby core. And LambdaConf. And and and I can't even name them all since *I* got active.

But it's time for that quiet majority of good people to start showing up. 100-to-1, just like Boston.
-
*That* should be the community you aim to create, a community where sexists get overwhelmed 100-to-1 by people who normally just wanna code.

This is why I avoid contributing to open source projects. There's always a few bad actors causing drama. Node is a nice platform right now.
