Yes, if Armenians ran around telling no one they could question the Armenian Genocide, people probably would be, but the Armenians actually got genocided, so there arent a suspicious number of them at the upper levels of society.

I have a question...

In all seriousness, its rather bizzare that the first thing that comes to these people's mind when the hear the _ question is automatically "muh antisemitism". Its utterly insane how fixated they are, almost as though its a religion to them (it is).

They are insane.
They are afraid to the level of ultra-paranoia.

All you need is use it against them by trolling them over and over again and by showing those insanity...

[Andrew's problematic submission](https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2024/p3403r0.pdf) doesn't propose a Final Solution, but it does make ominous references to The Question.

[From the writer's own explanation](http://tomazos.com/ub_question_incident.pdf), he initially had no idea and thought it was touching the undefined behavior problem itself that was the issue:
> During the presentation [...] there was what seemed to me to be an odd comment. I think I heard someone say “you should change the paper title”. Upon hearing this I didn’t really understand, I thought it was a joke about “undefined behavior” being a dirty word or something. So I giggled a little, playing along with what I perceived as a joke, and continued on with the presentation.

He thought about changing the title, but the content would still allude to The Question:

> I thought through options for drafting changes to the paper, and realized what I was thinking about was altering the semantic structure of the paper itself. The paper poses an important question about undefined behavior and so the title is correct [...] Throughout the paper it refers to “The Question” as an abbreviation for “The Undefined Behavior Question”. So even if I changed the title the paper would still refer to “The Question”, and I thought to myself, would this satisfy those complaining or do they want that changed too?

He ultimately chose to take a stand, so they holocausted him from the committee:

> I was then informed by the head of the delegation that they “fully understand that principles are important, but [...] we are at a place where the title is causing offence and objections from multiple individuals, and that is not acceptable for us.“

Seems like you could call it Questions about Undefined Behavior. Struggles Arising from Undefined Behavior. My Struggle against Undefined Behavior.

I gradually began to hate Undefined Behavior.

Some aspects of this come across like the true goal was to silence Andrew's long-standing issues with the actual concepts related to The Question, with his fashiness being a convenient excuse.

Due to its long lifespan, C++ has various inherited design flaws and limitations (such as the aforementioned undefined behavior). Younger languages like Rust are [anti-Undefined Behavior racists](https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/behavior-considered-undefined.html) - if you write unclear code like this, the compiler is meant to intentionally refuse to continue, basically telling you to "learn to code" and "git gud".

This guy is a beast and should sue to have his contributions excluded
