I have yet to meet any Trump supporter who is as racist and sexist that vast majority of leftist. It's open season against white, men, Christians and republicans. We are in real dystopia when we just label people and treat them accordingly, no matter how horrible the label. We should only focus on actions. Are we truly removing people from open source projects because they have opinions that are against code of conduct, if we assume that they don't promote or act on those opinions within the boundaries of that open source project/community?
Essentially are we blocking Chinese people who think their communist regime is great? Or people from all over the world who support their respective country, it's main religion and ideologies?
Code of conducts are weapons to spread the ideology of those who have the power to influence on the conduct. It's not democratic, and it will be used to slowly brainwash people and isolate those that think differently. On corporations this doesn't matter that much, you are essentially slave for the corporation against salary anyway. On open source projects however it can be the worst kind of cancer. It may create a safe place for insanity.
This kind of slippery slope is really dangerous. And many of the bad things are invisible. Like alienating real old school coders that actually matter.
Lets be civil, smart, but not give an inch to this insanity. Forest fires all start from single spark, slippery slope has been the method of social engineering, takeovers and all kind of horrible acts because it works.
