So I understand that the PHP Group granted the right to represent PHP on
specific social media platforms, and that the person holding this
responsibility, instead of passing it on to a successor, unilaterally
decided to stop contributing. This is not a proper approach, and the
account should be returned to the appropriate entity regardless of the
individual’s personal views. Framing the account as "abandoned" shifts the
narrative and misleads the discussion into treating this as an acceptable
outcome.
So, IMO, I think the access was lost, and this is a original problem.

Sarcasm. I use it when I see middle-aged white men from the Anglo-Saxon
world arguing over who has the correct perspective.
