    Well, as far as i have observed this (from safe distance, far, far away…) Andreas Kling rejected a proposal from a new contributor to change documentation to use gender neutral terms… and as usual with those things, people tend to get mad.

    Edit: A simple to the people downvoting: Why?

      Kling has promoted the nonsense white replacement conspiracy theory, whined about “leftist activists”.

      The answer is because just a tiny bit of looking at kling - just like with DHH - will reveal so much more far-right attitude and behavior beyond kling rejecting an offer to fix the poorly written documentation.
