I don't get this at all. He either embraces the inclusiveness Mozilla espouses or he steps down. Simple as that.<p>This is a human rights issue, there really is no other way around it. It's sad on all sides. Mozilla is doing work I support and believe in, but Eich has really tainted that.

It was not "taken down". It fell in rank. That may sound like nitpicking, but when it comes to inflammatory topics we all have a responsibility to be precise with our language.<p>The post fell in rank because of user flags and HN's flamewar detector.<p>Finally, this post is off-topic for HN (and always has been).
