That is, of course, the decision of the moderators - but I happen to
agree with both Christian and Ethan. Banning for the simple reason of a
dissenting opinion is censorship, pure and simple. While Bart may have
been prolific in his arguments, he never spoke in a toxic or
condescending manner, or broke any of the rules of conduct. I cannot
say the same for several who engaged with him.
+1000 It seems to me like the python-list moderators are rewarding
people for being bullies, by banning the people they were bullying.
The behavior on the list the past few days has been unforgivably
toxic, and that has nothing to do with the behavior of Bart et al.

+1 Seems to me Bart is being banned for "being a dick" and "talking
rubbish" (my words/interpretation) with irritating persistence. Wonder
how many of the non-banned members have been guilty of the same thing in
one way or another.
