This hackathon is a good example of the hypocrisy of the progressive movement. Because the hackathon is clearly motivated by progressive politics (making fun of what is considered to be a White cishet male dominated startup scene), they get to break all their own rules regarding appropriateness or decency. Note that the hackathon is sponsored by Mozilla SF, so it can't be claimed this is not an industry event. Here are some examples from the previous New York hackathon [0]: Sexual content (ordinary nerds would be told that any sexual content is inappropriate during work/industry related events): Golden Bitcoin Pasties, Focus Tools, Collaborative Fuck Bike, E.T. Strapon, Sado-Masochistic Macrame Planter, Tinder For Babies, "ok glass, vomit" Making fun of mental health/development issues: Stupid Font, Body shaming and objectification: Intellectual Babes Calendar And here are some prize categories in the current hackathon that are similarly offensive: Peter Thiel, Scatological APIs, Targetting The "Hikikomori" Space [0] http://www.stupidhackathon.com/ http://www.stupidhackathon.com/
