Here is the thread.

Here is another,shorter, thread.

Essentially, two men were at a con, and making "lewd sexual" jokes, a woman took issue with the jokes and tweeted about it - including a picture of the men making the jokes.

Staff of the con (this is apparently some super fancy tech con or something) saw the tweet, and had the men removed, and from there news spread - and one of the men was fired from his job.

The Hacker News thread is pretty much people arguing over whether or not this was legit, or just fucked.

Enjoy!
