It's not that, the reality of fascism on uni campuses (in tech) is really bleak. Lots of people don't see the problems that don't bother them.
So it's not trying to off people for asking the wrong questions. They're trying to cut back on the assholes that say things like:
"Awktually, there is a scientific arguement that whites smarter than blacks"
"I see you're black, but how ghetto are you?"
etc. etc.
Some things may get blown out of proportion, but I think people that claim it's not so bad don't know how bad it is for someone that doesn't fit a specific mold.
