> I'm not a representative of Rust the language (how could I be), and I reserve the right to call out moral corruption as I see it. I frankly do not need any "well-meaning" advice about how best to advocate for Rust - that's not my job.
Whether you realize it or not, you are an advocate and you are doing a very, very poor job of it.
If you are making technical decisions based on how strangers on the internet make you feel, I fear there's not much I could have done anyway.
