    RIght, because the best way to stop bad things from happening is to have everyone forget they happened…

      That isn’t remotely what they said. And if you seriously think we need to have “master branch” on GitHub in order to remember slavery I don’t know what to tell you.

        They’re a reminder of slavery, some people feel uncomfortable using / hearing them

        If you can’t even interpret that little text, you should go back to grade 1 school

          So an inadvertent reminder/source of discomfort means someone is advocating for something?

          Are you sure I’m the one who needs help interpreting text? On want planet could you read that as an accusation of being “Pro-slavery”? Like in favor of it. That’s patently absurd. And you know it’s absurd, you just don’t care because you’re trying to create the least charitable interpretation of someone’s text despite the fact that they were very clear with their language.

          You also didn’t respond to the bit about how we don’t need “master branch” to remember slavery happened. So I’ll just assume you realized that was a ridiculous thing to say.
