<p>Wow. Um. Okay, if this list is going to be asshole-free then we are almost all going to have to unsubscribe immediately.</p>
<p>Okay, now the irony has kicked in, this is hilarious. Tearing strips off one another over minor points of semantics during a discussion about discursive civility. The whole thing reads like a performance parody. And this is what it is like in New York all this time? Maybe I should go back there :) <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br></p>

Whoever admins this list - Serge should be removed for that email.
If it doesn't happen I'm out. <br>
<br>
Bully all you want on whatever other list your on - this one should
be asshole free. <br>
<br>
Someone let me know if he's allowed to stay after that outburst. <br>

While in OSM I've been called a pig, an imbecile, a bimbo,
and a host<br>
of other terms, but your mail is absolutely, without a
doubt the most<br>
offensive thing I've experienced in my time in
OpenStreetMap.<br>
<br>
While I feel bad for your accident, saying that this makes
you<br>
"neuro-diverse" is incredibly insensitive and rude.<br>
<br>
First of all, the term for people who differ from the norm
in terms of<br>
neurology are called "nero-divergent", not
"neuro-diverse", and second<br>
of all, your comparison of people who have conditions like
autism or<br>
learning disabilities to people who've been in an accident
is so<br>
offensive that I don't have the words for it.<br>
<br>
Second of all, it's not enough that you make
neuro-divergent people<br>
uncomfortable at events, including my fiancée (who by the
way has<br>
Aspegers), but now you've decided to shame her, and shame
me, and<br>
every other person who has been born with a neurological
disorder?<br>
<br>
You should absolutely be ashamed of yourself. This is the
exact type<br>
of behavior that a code of conduct should in place to
stop.<br>
<br>
Sincerely,<br>
<br>
- Serge Wroclawski<br>
