Like the CoC was a red flag for others. Given, I doubt that anything significant will change with or without its adoption. It was political though and therefore leaves a bad taste.

It is something, but it is clearly not about inclusion or anything. Not that harassment was ever a significant problem in any repository or mailing list I visited.

I think a general request for being polite is always a good thing. Mandatory behavior expectations are not. And this CoC reeks like it.

> This to me looks like the "all lives matter" equvialent. It's basically an idea that no one can object to on face value, because there is obviously nothing objectionable about it, but when being presented as an alternative to something else it makes it completely different.

Sure, though note that this description could just as easily apply to "Black Lives Matter".

> there is obviously nothing objectionable about it

I beg to differ. It's innocuous only at the most superficial level. Even a moment's reflection on how it focuses on what one may not do to address any kind of conflict, without providing alternatives, makes it pretty darn clear that this is not intended as an honest complement or critique of codes of conduct. It's more an instrument of sabotage, and that's pretty objectionable.
