    Pretty sure they are arguing that any discussion about “non-majority-conforming” persons is moderated or censored by the existing majority to the disadvantage of the minority.

      considering they later conclude that progressive speech is allowed you must be right. I was thrown off because in real life the “majority-conforming” opinion is “I do not care what is in your pants”.

      Edit: it’s also not reflective of my time in hacker spaces at all but OP has since confirmed it’s not actually about hacking spaces but just tech in general
