Empowering change through DEI: Red Hat’s women in technology event highlights role models and success stories

Address change at Red Hat:

Empowering change through DEI: Red Hat’s women in technology event highlights role models and success stories: On Jun. 7, Red Hat hosted its annual Women in Technology event [...] From the venue in the Microsoft Canada head office on the 43rd floor of 81 Bay Street

Summary: Looking closely at what Red Hat promotes under the guise of diversity, it turns out IBM lacks the office space to host a meeting; IBM has 288,300 employees worldwide compared to 221,000 at Microsoft (probably a lot less after this year's mass layoffs), but together with Microsoft, the foremost opponent of GNU/Linux, Red Hat under IBM actively undermines the community and criticising this event would seem racist and sexist (IBM is against racists, even if its founder admired and saluted Hitler himself)
