CEO of Brave rants about "lefties," "glowies," George Soros (lemm.ee)

The IRS rules governing nonprofits still required the Mozilla Foundation to beg big to go big: the parent had to go find big grants from Soros, Ford, Knight, MacArthur, and give smaller grants to many. This put it in the lefties-only-no-righty-Irish-need-apply revolving-door personnel sector of NGOs and nonprofits (too many glowies there for me, too). Which meant I had a hostile MoFo over my head the minute I got CEO appointment from the MoCo board...

Of course I can't comment on anything about my exit, for reasons that only the most loopy HN h8ers still can't figure out.

Jesus, this fucking paranoid bitch can barely string a sentence together. He must be neck deep in the techbro CEO k-hole...

For a non-native speaker of english this reads like a core dump. I have zero idea what this dude is even talking about.

Oh right - that's why I keep not installing Brave. I knew it was something and then I forget.

Is this racist against the Irish? I mean that is traditional, but sounds so strange.

We knew Eich was an asshole when he tried to support that amendment in California ages ago
