My response here might be poor (difficult subject, not a great writer), but I'm genuinely interested in your opinion.
"Microsoft stops selling software to American police departments" is a good response to BLM. "Microsoft changes 'master branch' to 'main branch'" is pointless deckchair-reshuffling that signifies nothing.
By applauding the change of a noun that has the most tangential possible relationship with slavery, aren't you letting them off the hook of doing anything substantive?
