@tragivictoria @Cal @unrtst @ret maintaining a soft fork/patchset that’s just systemd minus fascism seems doable for now

It's an optional field in the userdb JSON object. It's not a policy engine, not an API for apps. We just define the field, so that it's standardized iff people want to store the date there, but it's entirely optional.Lie by omission here. Clearly the reason for this being added is AV. Imagine it was a "sexualOrientation or "ethnicBackground" field that just got added because $government suddenly made that sort of thing a hot topic... "oh it's just part of the JSON schema, it's not up to us to decide how people use those fields! Fuck off. systemd should have no knowledge of any of that. It's irrelevant to the operation of the system.Playing into the hands of fascists and he knows it and doesn't want it discussed or highlighted.

I also hate project owners and maintainers that close down discussion like this full-stop. It's not like it's taking place in your front room, Lennart. If people want to discuss it and decide whether they agree or not, let them.

@hakki @tragivictoria @ret @Cal @unrtst I don’t think it makes sense to do anything more than a minimal soft-fork if you want it to be sustainable
