I think it would be a superficial form of 'progress'; one that certainly reduces conflict in the short term, but whose outcome would be significantly worse than a whole-system analysis would produce, leaving too many conflicting/unspecified things that will produce conflict in the future This is back to making those abstract claims. I suppose you have something clear in your head but it's not obvious what it is. | 17:24:58 |
 @joepie91:pixie.town | that doesn't change that there is an ideological conviction behind the RFC, even if it doesn't become obvious from the text; in this case, a conviction that only [blatant] outward behaviour should be a factor in making moderation decisions, and not intent or impact | 17:24:59 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | the difference in RFC 98 is that it states this ideological conviction explicitly, rather than benefiting from its proximity to the status quo by leaving it implicit | 17:25:33 |

| @joepie91:pixie.town | both of them are ideologically-motivated, and the same will be true for any proposal on moderation policy and social norms | 17:26:05 |

I described this in a bit more concrete detail here: https://matrix.to/#/!YvjJmbmVxFKdRqsLPx:nixos.org/$wMLNea8QP68EDUNABpc9B15vAToYRBhOKwdN5AvGWW8?via=nixos.org&via=matrix.org&via=pixie.town | 17:26:38 |

| @zimbatm:numtide.com | I feel like we're back to square one | 17:27:39 |
| @jonringer:matrix.org | Again, if we are forcing people to abide by someone's definition of "social norms", "fascism", and "bigotry". I'm leaving the community | 17:27:39 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | joepie91 🏳️🌈: is there an agenda that you are not sharing with us | 17:28:20 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | jonringer: there's honestly nothing I can do with that comment, other than be concerned about what you mean with that. I don't feel like you're engaging with my point above | 17:28:22 |
| @jonringer:matrix.org | There's a difference between moderation, and enforcing behaviors | 17:28:22 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | Jonas Chevalier: "agenda" is a strange choice of words, but I've been pretty explicit about my intentions; I can repeat them explicitly though. I want the NixOS community to be a welcoming, inclusive and productive community, in which there is no tolerance for things like bigotry. | 17:29:36 |
| @zimbatm:numtide.com | We should stop using terms like "ideologies" which are too loaded. Having a set of principles we can follow to work together is not an ideology. | 17:29:45 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | this is absolutely ideological, and I reject the notion that it isn't, because that only ever ends up being used to present some "rational" and "neutral" option that's actually just popular ideology masquerading as rationality | 17:30:44 |

I want the NixOS community to be a welcoming, inclusive and productive community, in which there is no tolerance for things like bigotry. Whenever I see terms like that, I get a very specific sense of "diversity", that is drawn along very specific lines | 17:30:52 |
| @joepie91:pixie.town | Jonas Chevalier: it is. that is why I mentioned the paradox of tolerance very early on, for example. | 17:31:11 |
