Codes of Conduct are only seen as left wing because they restrict hate speech and restricting hate speech upsets right wing people. Conservative, right wing people have no problem restricting supposed cuss words on television, regulating sexuality, limiting medical health and what doctors can do, praising the police state and mass deportation and imprisonment programs, limiting access to welfare and food, and more. That's what makes it hard to tell the difference between a right wing person and a racist regardless of what country they're from or the color of their skin -- because they back every freedom limiting initiative that effects everyone that's not themselves.
It's fun watching y'all conservative right wingers get pissed off when you're forced to have to follow the same rules and regulations as everyone else. Oh my God, actual equality in practice. Oh the horror. Oh the humanity.
If the Code of Conduct didn't punish y'all for saying words that the Phoronix Auto Moderator flags as hate speech y'all would love it because it's yet another tool to force your will on others. Sucks for them that they can't debate without calling people highly regarded ninjas.
Also, even if you were correct, your point is pretty moot. The reason the earlier commenter coined the CoC committee leftist is not for trying to restrict speech. It is because in our day and age it is the left wing's practice to prefer people who make you feel good instead of those who are actually competent, to dictate to be nice if another person you are criticizing has genuinely f**ked up, and to embrace lies about technical or biological facts if they don't resonate with those around you. This has nothing to do with "restricting rights".
My opinion: Of course we should require everybody to be nice to each other. It it is good if there is a "task force" like a committee that oversees such things and makes sure that people are generally nice to each other. The problem with many such committees though is that they enforce this unconditionally, even when you do have a right and reason to be angry at somebody, or even if it means having to acknowledge inferior solutions to problems.Last edited by ultimA; 21 January 2025, 01:03 PM.

You've got it wrong. All the examples you've named (mass deportations, limiting people's right, police state, limiting access to food and welfare, and so on...) are not typical for extreme right regimes. Yes they all happened with extreme right regimes, but they all also happened with extreme left regimes. See many past and present communist states/governments. So no, you are wrong claiming that "limiting speech and restricting what people can and can't" are either right or left wing values. Both wings have made good use of these tactics along history.

Anyways, you can call it CoC communist restricted speech, but that's they all agreed on the rules and then to follow them. It isn't restricting rights when you willingly take an oath to restrict yourself. It just makes you an oath breaker when you don't follow the ideals you promised to uphold.
In some ways you're right, knowing that you won't be called a racial slur or some other derogatory term does make people feel good. It does feel nice to go through life and know that some random person won't call you a fat ass and throw gum in your hair as the school bus drives off or to randomly be groped because you're chubby and have it laughed off because "boys will be boys and he apologized". It can be nice to live in a pleasant society where people are kind and polite to one another and to know that if they do something bad then they'll be punished . . . but I'm an American so that just seems like Fantasy Land with Felon in Chief and his oligarch buddy doing the "Roman Salute".Last edited by skeevy420; 21 January 2025, 02:17 PM.

Hardly. There are over a half dozen contributors each kernel release to ext4. These days most my time is spent doing code review and running tests and improving the {kvm,gce,qemu,android}-xfstests test appliance. And I very much rely on 2 or 3 other developers working at SuSE and IBM to help out with the code review.

The real axis is totalitarian vs libertarian. Now you think you are free and smart because at last you are allowed to spit on yesterday's shrines while your modern leaders and spiritual sheperds are fighting against evil and harmful speaches to protect modern goverment-approved shrines. In reality totalitarians have replaced tired religion with new one.
This is also where the copyleft vs permissive divide exists as copyleft ensures communal ownership whereas permissive allows total ownership of another's work.
