These are not "Python community guidelines". These are the guidelines of a tyrannical clique who have grabbed power and control the access to the infrastructure.

They abuse their power by banning any opposition and then using said infrastructure to libel and defame their opponents.

Google already fired one or two of them. I do not know what is required to restore the health of Python.

I would appreciate more information about this.

It's funny how drama, toxicity and speech suppresion ensues as soon as you establish a CoC and let a bunch of SJWs enforce it. Every. Single. Time.

I would like to see more instances of this kind of thing going on, the fallout, and so on.

NixOS drama is the most recent instance: https://chrismcdonough.substack.com/p/the-nixos-conflict-in-...

Similarly (un)funny how the technology behind blockchains, formal verification, and decentralization is ridiculed on the basis of inefficiency etc., Every. Single. Time. given such a governance structure would be so much harder for the legalese power trippers to regulatory capture...

What are you talking about? Were you around for the DAO moment a few years ago? Anyone who had a lot of crypto could powertrip and effectively veto any vote.

again, cryptography is not crypto, yes I remember the DAO, but no I didnt say buying democracy. I said using the technology behind blockchains.

Any rules of order or organizational structure could be formulated in say metamath as formal sentences and a UI built around it so that people can take steps and make decisions and prove they are entitled to do so.

a malicious actor should fail to be able to prove undeserved powers in a properly formulated formal system.

none of this censorship nonsense

Fired who?
