this defense edit does not make sense. no, volunteer foss engineers don't need to stay clear of popular projects. if the allegations in the replies are true, I'm genuinely sorry for that, but that's not a risk of being a foss developer, that is a risk of discussing on the internet.

if people are harassing you, you should report them to the admins.

    People were harassing me for trying to supporting the person in question. However, they were using information from my other posts to use hate speech to do it. Their arguments against my points had no real content beyond "I'm right and I'm mad you keep making points that question that rightness." Removing those hopefully will leave others with similar belligerent opinions from digging into my post history to harass and try to bring harm to me because of my gender in retaliation for debating their rightness.
