   Sometimes I still randomly think back to when I was cancelled out of the #Guix community (for supporting women's rights) and it reinvigorates my insomnia and gives me light panic attacks.
   
   Then for a moment I feel motivated to do something against it. But then I remember the entirety of "FOSS" is now dominated by the same sexist nonsense, which is "Code of Conduct" documents written by men hostile to feminism, all patting each other on the back telling themselves how good and progressive they are for using a CoC that was written by a dude who doesn't believe sexism exists.
   
   It's actually infuriating. Drive out women, drive out people who care about freedom of expression, drive out neurodivergent people who don't want authoritarian control over their choice of words, and then wonder why Free Software is in shambles and corporations gain ever more control.
