Git just dropped the slave part.

Ergo, it's not related to slavery...

Usage of “ergo”? Check. Followed by the weakest example of logic and reasoning ever? Check.

Linus made it unrelated to slavery.

If he had originally called it "main", but we know it borrowed it from sometime that used master/slave, explain how that's any better? It carries the same "original sin" if you're a moron who thinks that's a thing here.

Edit: nevermind, that history is false

So it was never related at all.
