[Rspamd-Users] Is RSPAMD racist?

[Marcin Marszałkowski]

How come spam filtering program might be “racist”?
Political correctness turns everything into idiocracy... Or maybe all words containing phrase “black” should be banned? But what about other colours, we can’t be truly progressive when we use them... 🤣

Please stay away from politics here, switch off tv; turn your brain on!

Regards
Marcin
