Which is my point exactly. The issue is not on-wiki. And Pradeep has quit from Wikipedia over this issue.
While I have no intention of getting involved in an already hot-headed debate, I am concerned that an editor of 5 years has quit.
I am not underestimating issues or ignoring them. While so many are debating about at the issue, I'm just pointing at the highly unfortunate fallout.

Please dont underestimate things - they are far more serious than they were in the past.
Srikeit: The issues are far too serious to leave aside. There so much involved and things look so dark, I myself am at wits end. The question is does one have the time and energy to take them up or does one just given up and leave.

Don't worry Srikeit ,
That is a temporary phase. IIRC, he was out of the mailing list/s also some weeks/months back. :-)
Let him take some wikiholidays and come back afresh.

Why retire from here?
Remember the good old days? When we used to edit in our own cocoons?
The
only communication between two editors was through talk pages and the occasional use of [[Special:Emailuser]]. And we had fun. That fun is
why
we're still here.
We moved on to more communication, more outreach. All good. We need to spread the word. We're evangelists of the noblest of causes. It's all
good.
