And of course now that the people who wrote the CoC aren’t even following it we know that was really just a political tool

Some of us always knew what CoC were for, we sounded the alarms and were ignored ;)

You don't normally needs a CoC to do the right thing, you need a CoC to justify doing the wrong thing.

Everyone knows those are a childish tool used by bully nerds to wield power over others with this fake better than thou outlook on things that have nothing to do with programming or the computer.

Like seriously I’m on a computer remotely discussing tech with people. I don’t personally care about who the other person is or does beyond their contribution to the repo and topic at hand. Beyond that, to weaponize decent behavior as a tool to do additional things, is not right.

Sorry but when can we stop taking “developer advocate” type people seriously? They’re usually not devs or technical (at least in my own experience), and add all these side things which make no sense except in political organizations.
