Sure, I can appreciate that in cases where it feels particularly forced or inorganic. However, to the extent that the tech/software world aligns with academia or leadership, it's such a common trope that white guys are very predominant in these positions of authority and conduct themselves like this to women constantly. It doesn't feel inorganic I guess because of that frame of awareness.

So I do agree that mentioning race like this is sure to be received poorly, but I struggle to weigh that aspect of her post in the focused magnitude that others here as significant compared to her treatment.
