This is exactly what the opponents of CoC-culture warned about: it's a clever rhetorical smokescreen to allow leftist freaks to do power grabs like this. Words like "harm", "inclusive", "community" etc have dual-meanings, one for the clique insiders and another for the outsiders.

And lmao wow, one of the mods involved in this is also a mod at lobste.rs. No wonder the "discussion" there looked so uncanny.

without commenting on this specific case because TLDR: the same argument could be used in a situation where moderators allow harassment against certain groups in the name of freedom of speech, while moderating harassment against others.

moderation is prone to power plays no matter which angle you approach it with.
