STATEMENT FROM MOZILLA:

https://blog.mozilla.org/

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Mozilla prides itself on being held to a different standard and, this past week, we didn’t live up to it. We know why people are hurt and angry, and they are right: it’s because we haven’t stayed true to ourselves.

We didn’t act like you’d expect Mozilla to act. We didn’t move fast enough to engage with people once the controversy started. We’re sorry. We must do better.

Brendan Eich has chosen to step down from his role as CEO. He’s made this decision for Mozilla and our community.

Mozilla believes both in equality and freedom of speech. Equality is necessary for meaningful speech. And you need free speech to fight for equality. Figuring out how to stand for both at the same time can be hard.

Our organizational culture reflects diversity and inclusiveness. We welcome contributions from everyone regardless of age, culture, ethnicity, gender, gender-identity, language, race, sexual orientation, geographical location and religious views. Mozilla supports equality for all.

We have employees with a wide diversity of views. Our culture of openness extends to encouraging staff and community to share their beliefs and opinions in public. This is meant to distinguish Mozilla from most organizations and hold us to a higher standard. But this time we failed to listen, to engage, and to be guided by our community.

While painful, the events of the last week show exactly why we need the web. So all of us can engage freely in the tough conversations we need to make the world better.

We need to put our focus back on protecting that Web. And doing so in a way that will make you proud to support Mozilla.

What’s next for Mozilla’s leadership is still being discussed. We want to be open about where we are in deciding the future of the organization and will have more information next week. However, our mission will always be to make the Web more open so that humanity is stronger, more inclusive and more just: that’s what it means to protect the open Web.

We will emerge from this with a renewed understanding and humility — our large, global, and diverse community is what makes Mozilla special, and what will help us fulfill our mission. We are stronger with you involved.

Thank you for sticking with us.

Mitchell Baker, Executive Chairwoman

We need to demand that cupid.com stop using “bigot” created javascript.

[cuban leaf]

I’m confused. How did they “force” him out?

[Resolute Conservative]

I installed both Opera and Torch to test them out. I see that OkStupid condones Opera so I will try Torch I guess. Can we not have one company that stands up for America? Do they all have to pander to queers and globalization crap?

[escapefromboston]

Liberals care more about queer marriage than about the fact that Silicon Valley tech companies have been colluding for years to suppress wages of their employees?

[uncitizen]

Jesse Jackson was planning a shakedown of Silicon Valley. I wonder if he’s the one (well his people) who dug up this “dirt” on Brendan Eich. we know that the gay agenda activists have been aligning with the “civil rights” agenda.

[SECURE AMERICA]

The homosexuals have declared war on normal Americans. Yes I said normal because being a pervert is not normal!

[I want the USA back]

So the PC fascists have won. Whenever a specially-privileged government-certified victim group whines everybody bows down, grovels and gives in.

[Jim Robinson]

"Eich clearly has more sense in his little pinky than the “aggrieved” have collectively. But still, this is one of the saddest days in America -- a nation founded on religious liberty, a nation that has fought to protect the civil liberties of its citizens from encroachment by the state or abuse by employers, landlords and other institutions. It now seems that anyone can be punished for his or her religious, moral or political beliefs by well-funded mobs that can exert economic pressure on one’s employer. These are the tactics of closed societies behind the Iron Curtain; not the shining city on the hill."

And it's all made possible by our lawless leftist government forcing godless abortionism, homsexulaism, collectivism on our society from top down.

This is why we fight.

Do not comply! Resist!

The truth and consequences ‘homosexual deviancy’. It is anything but natural and normal. Those espousing it are deeply deceived.

Lest it ever be forgotten:

In this current fascist faggot fiasco, as in every other national deviance of the past few decades, there is ONE enabler without which none of it would have been possible:

             

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Anybody making “I LIKE EICH” buttons?

Does anyone dare make “I Like Eich” buttons?

[Cato in PA]

Another victim of leftist “tolerance” goes quietly into the night. I continue to marvel at the number of conservatives who refuse to tell liberal loudmouths to stuff their degenerate rhetoric in their bongs and smoke it.

I’d like to say that I’m done with Firefox, but there really aren’t any alternatives out there from companies that respect the family. Microsoft, Apple, and Google are all friends of the deviant lobby. Small-time alternatives like Konqueror and Midori don’t have enough features to be useful.

But still, as a system administrator, my days of promoting Mozilla above everything else are over.

And I can sure as hell tell you that I’ll never go back on OKCupid.

[cookcounty]

I use mozilla now, I’ve liked it but am tech-challenged. Sometime when I have 2 free hours and I’m too relaxed to get white-knuckle frustrated, I’m going to switch out.
