I am reasonably sure the only place that "his politics" came up was in
the Reddit thread, where the group moderator spent a lot of time
insisting that calling Paul to task is all about revenge for being
anti-CoC. That's a red herring, a fictitious one, and I would
appreciate it if you would not drag that nonsense in here. Repeating a
lie doesn't make it true.
There are plenty of people I work with in FIG, in my job, and in Drupal
with whom I disagree considerably on political or social views, and we
still manage to work together comfortably and professionally. There are
even current and former FIG members that I get along with just fine
because we mutually agree to avoid certain topics of conversation. :-)
I've never felt spoken down to by any of them on this list.
At this point, hopes are slim any good will come of this, because it's
going to require a lot of big egos to swallow their pride and
politics, and actually try to work together in a respectful,
compassionate, cooperative fashion.
"work together in a respectful, compassionate, cooperative fashion" is
what those who have filed complaints feel Paul has failed at in the
first place.
+1 on all this. I am sorry my time is very limited at the moment so I
don't have a ton to add but I would like to voice my support
nonetheless. We need cooler heads here, everyone seems to be in full on
"with us or against us" mode and that was really not the point (IMHO).
