Yeah, this seems like a troll. It's been on my mind, as recent events at Yale and University of Missouri have me wondering if there are fake SJWs trying to discredit their cause or maybe just have some lulz.

From the initial comment in the PR, I would say that the trolliness is ambigious.
Doubling down on the comments in spite of valid counterarguments, however, is a certain indicator of a troll. The ad hominem "you are a member of the Django Software Foundation" enforces it.

That's going to be awfully hard, given that capital follows the Cathedral. Addressing half the underlying issue (corruption of objective intellect by politics, since our field is now powerful) just adds fuel to the fire.
