i think more people should know that jeff geerling is anti-abortion and anti-homosexuality – and used to be openly so. these days, it seems he'd prefer if people didn't notice, because his success playing the social media and oss game probably hinges somewhat on these things about him remaining in relative obscurity.

want proof? here's the URLs of two blog posts he has since deleted, but to my knowledge never made any public statement about. you can look these up in the web archive of your choice.

these aren't the only examples. feel free to go looking for more like this, if these aren't sufficiently abhorrent for you.

despite these views not being a secret, this man enjoys quite the reputation in tech circles, to the point that his ansible code finds me at my dayjob, introduced by people who likely haven't a clue what kind of a person he is, and that doesn't sit right with me.
