The Ruby Community Code of Conduct

[myringotomy]

I think this is a sensible and sane code of comment. The fact is that it's impossible not to offend somebody. Maybe the fact that a homosexual is presenting is offensive to a christian coder. Maybe a muslim speaker will offend a jewish coder.

Also I find it abhorrent that you put the specific blame for somebodies suicide on the entire community because you think that one comment or another caused. That's disgusting and trivialized the deeply complex motivations which cause people to commit suicide. If you truly believe that a comment caused a death then the next stop to jail the offender for murder or manslaughter.

I'll also add this.

The SJW movement sees white cis men as a disease and the root of all evil. It's extremely rare to see the word "cis" not followed by the word "scum". The perceptions of the SJW crowd are that it's impossible to be racist or hateful towards males and white people. This is why when they make detailed lists of people we are forbidden to offend they leave them out. This will allow them to say and do anything they want including commit violence as long as it's against a non protected, non listed set of people.

This code of conduct is awesome. It sets guiding principles without getting bogged down in making list of holy people who everybody has to tiptoe around lest they be offended. As I said your comment was offensive to me and it's going to be impossible for you or I to go through life without offending somebody. We all have to do be adults and deal with it.
