It needs to be pointed out that Thomas Wouters was recently re-elected to the PSF board. I think we need to know whether Thomas speaks for the entire PSF board.Giampaolo feared this:
"It's gonna happen again and again, until everybody gets in line, shuts up or leaves due to exhaustion." and Thomas replied: "I'm not sure how much more clear python-dev and the PSF could have been that this is true." So is it true? Do the core devs and the PSF have a policy of pushing divisive political changes to silence and force out of the community people who are guilty of thought-crime and holding the wrong opinion on political matters? I think that Thomas' post violated the CoC: * not open, considerate, or respectful; * dismissive of Giampaolo's efforts; * not respectful of differing viewpoints; * lacking empathy towards others with alternative perspectives. The CoC doesn't mention the word "tolerant" or "tolerance", but there was nothing of either in Thomas' post. And coming from a PSF Board member, I think that is extremely worrying.
