Ramin HonaryYes, exactly. But I am not arguing for the sake of semantics, as you seem to suggest. I am saying accusations of "bringing politics" into an "apolitical" discussion is nonsense.
> "You argue that charging money is political, and not charging money is political. No matter what I chose, it must be political,Yes, correct again.
> "even though I explained clearly how there are very much non-political reasons to make source code publicly available."...and I am trying to explain to you how your notion of "non-political" is nonsense, only that there is no political controversy involved in your reasoning, which is only true until it is not.
> "I can voice my political disagreements in many other places than a code repository, places which are inherently more appropriate."I agree. Just keep in mind there are times when people who have important disagreements feel ignored and might feel the need to talk politics on a code mailing list. Unfortunately, in my experience I often see people trying to voice concerns about codes of conduct, only to be ignored, and then have no choice but to disagree in comment threads, where they are then accused of "bringing politics" into the discussion. Sometimes the politics doesn't belong there, sometimes it does. We can use our best judgement according to the situation.
> "Harassing a community because one of the developers disagrees on political points has become the norm"I agree, but it is strange that you see this disagreement as "bringing politics into an apolitical forum." My whole point is that there is politics involved if you know how to recognize it. For example (maybe not in this particular case you are talking about), but for example, perhaps a problem with the community not having an meaningful forum (one that isn't ignored by the community) to discuss political issues.
