Dubai is actively being built by slave labor. And UAE has committed numerous human rights violations against women, queer people, and Asian people. Not only was this looked over but the immediate response when people pointed it out was to lock the thread and hide their replies

Would you risk being murdered by the state to attend a conference? Even if we accept that a foreigner is unlikely to be persecuted, you’d still be showing support through association for a regime that thinks large parts of our community shouldn’t exist equaldex.com/region/united-…

This is not the win you’re making it out to be. They’ve just effectively banned any LGBTQ folks from attending

Not surprising at all that the founder of ReactEurasia (a tech conference hosted in Dubai) is also a crypto shill.

Openly LGBTQ people face criminal punishment up to the death penalty in Dubai. I guess you don’t want any queer people at your conference then.

If you’re paying attention to ReactEurasia’s choice for conference location, you’re witnessing why committees with diversity are important. It would’ve taken just a _single_ voice to express how poor & harmful that choice was for the community they’re serving.

Is having the death penalty for homosexual acts 'cosmopolitan lifestyle' now? How non-diverse is an organisation where nobody speaks up, when someone plans a conference in Dubai?

1. The woman in 3rd place was harassed into locking their social media by terfs for not being transphobic 2. This was a 'non-binary' race. This is us competing in 'our own events' just like you wanted, so maybe you always just hated trans women.

It would almost be funny if it weren't so potentially devastating in its implications, as the last quarters have shown. Somehow this has turned into the "tech critical" position and not one formed out of study of how society and technology interact
