Hm, yeah that was mentioned you're right. And that mention is inappropriate, as the issue isn't political views elsewhere (as mentioned, I know many people here who disagree politically but are still able to collaborate) but behavior and communication issues here in FIG.

My point regarding the Reddit thread stands, though; it was quite disappointing to see someone try to derail the issue in that way (apparently with at least some success).

I've read through every post on this thread. Paul's politics have been mentioned more than a few times by more than a few people on this thread. For instance:

PMJ is a human being that needs to be cared for the same as any other
human being. But that is not this groups responsibility. Any benefits
that PMJ brings to this group also come with a mountain of baggage and
politics that I personally want nothing to do with. If this group
continues to allow PMJ to serve as a voting member, they are
implicitly saying that his communication style, politics, and
leadership within the community deserve respect and consideration. "

That's a direct quote from Woody Gilk on July 12th. You can find it toward the bottom on page 5.

    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.
