It's a good thing Nat took the time to tell us that GitHub condemns the attack on the US Capitol. We might not know otherwise.
I mean seriously, why do corporations feel the need to say this nonsense? Are we really at the point where a corporation needs to waste time to tell us "hey y'all, in case you weren't sure, we don't actually support an armed insurrection attempting to stop the democratic transfer of power, and lynch a sitting Vice President."
I agree! That's probably why their employees are also wasting their time discussing politics in the work public channel. And I don't mean it should be forbidden to talk about politics in the work public channel. It happens, but I have seen that Github has a lot of it.
