Collection of statements to add/points to make/text fragments/…:
We are diverse in many aspects, but when we as a community tolerate sexist / racist / homophobic etc. notions, we exclude a lot of people. And if the question is, whether I want to exclude those who are being insulted or those who are insulting others, the answer is clear to me. [Wir sind in vielen Dimensionen divers, aber dadurch, dass wir (as in: The Community) sexistische / rassistische / homophobe Kackscheiße tolerieren, schließen wir eine Menge Menschen aus. Und wenn die Frage ist, ob ich die, die angepöbelt werden oder die die anpöbeln ausschließen will, ist für mich die Antwort klar.]
The Community is not only diverse in terms of their members social positionings. People have different approaches and points of interest to hacking culture. Yet, the dominant image of what the "real hacker" looks like and what they do is very narrow and implicates, that people who don't fit this image are not perceived as legitimate members of the community. We're committed to changing this aspect. [Die Community ist nicht nur hinsichtlich der sozialen Positionen ihrer Mitglieder divers. Es gibt verschiedene Zugänge und Interessen an Hacker_innenkultur.  Das vorherrschende Bild davon, wie ein_e „echter Hacker“ aussieht und was er_sie tut ist allerdings sehr eng und bringt mit sich, dass Leute, die diesem Bild nicht entsprechen, nicht als legitime Mitglieder der Community wahrgenommen werden. Wir setzen uns dafür ein, das zu ändern.]
Q: https://twitter.com/johl/status/287286220093001730 -- johl: Once the rockets are up, who cares who is included, that's not my department.
A: We care, and it's (all) our department
== points to make ==
Purpose of petition:
Acknowledge some facts
That as a community we are a social group and have to take care of each other
The issue of sexism, and general homogeneity of the community
The importance of the issue and what harm sexism and other forms of discrimination do to the community
The time and people that have fought this so far
That some people feel safe and happy (and that's great) but some don't (but we want them to and so we need to work on ourselves)
The trigger that was 29c3
The great parts of our community
Other people/spaces/conferences may be worse but that's not an excuse not to try and improve the concerns you face
Denying a problem because you're not affected is not cool (solidarity and mutual aid!)
We need many solutions to many problems, and judging each others solutions isn't a productive way to take care of each other
That there are positive examples of how to deal with this
The hacker community can be amazingly supportive of its members
Define some terms
Sexism
Feminism
Harassment
Otherization
Rape culture? (more cans with more worms?)
“sexistische Kackscheiße”
what a “safe space” is
DefMa and/or community accountability
Mansplaining
Pledge to incorporate the following points in the future
commitment to making hackerspaces safe spaces
Calling out behaviours which are discriminatory
Propose or point to ways of how to deal with the above (LINKS? Geekfeminism+Wiki, Hackerequality, femgeeks, )
Keeping a constructive dialogue active
Propose places to discuss issues
hackerequality.org + mailing list?
Safe space meetings/lectures at hackerspaces?
