OTD in 1998, I recieved an invite to join what later became The Web Standards Project. (In hindsight, I like the original title much better) // @zeldman @mholzschlag @AaronGustafson @feather @patrick_h_lauke @brucel @setmajer @meyerweb

One person does not constitute a Lynch Mob nor should any of our celebratory humor be undone. We have a right to make jokes and use language as we deem appropriate. Offended individuals can Express their own emotional response. Deletion is suppression of free speech.

I chose to undo my retweet once I had read the entire thing. I should have read it all before retweeting—my bad. "Humorous" reference to a lynch mob isn't humorous. It wasn't cool then and it isn't cool now. Choosing not to heedlessly retweet something is not censorship.

Lynch Mob is highly politicized and that I understand as a concern. The word Cunt is what I thought the response was, just to be clear. It's time for someone to invent a stick-out-of-ass machine.
