Taking yours and Sam's "then don't participate"-style responses, one
might conclude that diversity is desirable only when folks are of like
mind, which kinda defeats the point.

The original feedback wasn't general complaints, it was a specific
question:  "what does feel safe mean?"  It's a reasonable question,
even if there was some over-use of hyperbole.  He ended with a
paragraph like, "now, if this is what you mean...I'm fine with it"  On
any other topic, I feel like most folks around here would assume
positive intent and try to understand the perspective.

Thanks,
