      You think being a bigot is a skill issue do you? Like everyone deep down is just a bigot (self-inferred I assume?), and some people just have the social skills to hide that better? Have you tried not being a bigot instead of just hiding it?

        Basically this. Yes. This is how socialization works. This is also how a society works.

        I have no problem with Vaxry since I don’t know him personally. I don’t think we could be friends, based on what he says online. But to me this is absolutely irrelevant when it comes to using the software he maintains.
