(sarcasm) that'it.. they removed a sexist jokes in the documentation of glibc. it's over. the whole project is going to die soon, because it needs sexism to exist. when will the sjws stop ruining everything???

@Siphonay why do you say it is a sexist joke?

@szam replace sexist by "offensive" sorry

@Siphonay offensive for who? as I read it this joke targets anti-abortion laws

@szam @Siphonay I think "insensitive" is the more correct term.

This "joke" (really, political statement) has the potential to hurt some people that are very sensitive to the issue at hand.

@Jenkar @Siphonay they removed this statement because "it does not provide any useful information"

do you think political statements defending the right to abortion are not okay?

@szam @Siphonay I think the documentation of a project is not a place for them.

@Jenkar @Siphonay I think a good place for them is: everywhere

@szam @Siphonay Then we are in (strong) disagreement.

I believe that when people are reading the documentation, they are expecting... documentation on what they are reading.

This doesn't spark debate, change, or thinking about basic rights, because this is not a place made for such statements : it is a place to document glibc. Therefore, there's no gain from it, it's gratuitous shock value. And it will cause distress to people sensitive about this issue.
