Oh well. This one.

Just some context: Samantha McVey was/is involved with the guy who kept pushing repositories with names like perl6-n_g_er (fully spelled out, of course) and commit messages like "Get a job, n_g_er". Just look at this juicy thread:

There was also a Slack log which corroborated what Sebastian had written about, and I don't know why I spent time to read it, but I have read it, and at the end I don't know why CAT even exists, what exact function it fulfills except for apparently being a SI unit of hypocrisy, and what a joke the whole thing (TPF and CAT both) is.

What community is welcoming and allows someone like that to be active in 2021? That's shocking and disgusting.
