When speech-policing is proposed without irony, and welcomed with applause, I respond correctly: with scorn and contempt, as is deserved. > There are real and legitimate issues in the IT world that need to be addressed, and a good CoC, > fairly-enforced, is one useful tool in doing so. Like rainbows and ponies, "a good CoC, fairly-enforced" is an imaginary creature. The "real and legitimate issues" can be addressed without one, perhaps with the "conflict resolution" document you referenced. It is orders of magnitude more reasonable, and observably less fascist in its binding-together of the personal, political, and project. It still needs work but it's a better starting point than the horrific Contributor Covenant. -- Paul M.
