CEO of Brave rants about "lefties," "glowies," George Soros
The IRS rules governing nonprofits still required the Mozilla Foundation to beg big to go big: the parent had to go find big grants from Soros, Ford, Knight, MacArthur, and give smaller grants to many. This put it in the lefties-only-no-righty-Irish-need-apply revolving-door personnel sector of NGOs and nonprofits (too many glowies there for me, too). Which meant I had a hostile MoFo over my head the minute I got CEO appointment from the MoCo board...
Of course I can't comment on anything about my exit, for reasons that only the most loopy HN h8ers still can't figure out.

Ohh, Thanks I did need a dictionary for the OP, but you still left out the racist 4chan verbiage around the etymology ("CIA N*s glow in the dark"). https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/glowie#English

Yeah.. didn't expect Google to plain text that one for me...

It's a bit worse than that, the term started with a slur attached
Glowie, also known as a Glown*****, is a slang term popular on 4chan's /pol/ board used in reference to CIA or other governmental agents posing as ordinary 4chan users...
-
The originator of the term is the late Terry Davis, a paranoid schizophrenic and developer of TempleOS. He used to go on angry rants about "glow in the dark CIA removed", or glowies for short.
-
He was discovered by 4channers and harassed up until his death. His choice of language, and mental deterioration, were due to them in no small part
-
Damn, I didn't know he got Chris Chan'd. Ugh. So fucking tragic.
