NPR and NYT mocked coal miners that lost their jobs during Obama's war on coal, telling them to "learn to code".
When media outlets like HuffPo and Buzzfeed started massive layoffs, we responded appropriately with "learn to code", which Twatter then immediately ruled to be rayciss and homophobic.
"Learn to code" was started by the Left, who mocked coal miners that instead of wrecking the environment and being shitty useless black-collar workers with no future because Green Energy, they should "learn to code".
Then when a shitload of journalists from one of the Leftist garbage-news sites (I think it was Gawker, which got sued and bankrupted by Peter Thiel) got laid off a few years ago, people tweeted at them to "learn to code". Then that suddenly became "racist hate speech" because we were mocking the doubleplusgoodthink crowd.
Is the whole "learn to code" a meme around here?
Yes. People say it to journalists who get laid off... And it's somehow become mean or racist or something (according to twitter
Journalists were saying job losses weren't a big deal because workers could re-train and learn to code.
But once there were some big layoffs at fake news outlets, normal people started telling ex journalists to "learn to code"
Mind you, these journalists were lamenting and complaining about being laid off...not much sympathy for them
I saw the words coming from Biden's own lips on a clip a few days ago.

And then Twitter banned everyone who said 'learn to code' to the poor journies

Kind of. There was an initiative to get coal miners to learn to code and now you can get banned on Twitter for telling someone "learn to code"
