            Uhh, use of titles is indeed a way to (subtly) enforce hierarchies. We have a "president" and not a "prince" or "autocrat for a reason, although the effectiveness of the word "president" kind of stopped mattering decades ago. Go watch century of the self and learn about how advertisement works, right after you read 1984. Forcing people to use words with established meanings in the wrong way eventually will affect the way in which they think and behave, on top of being unpleasant and fostering an environment of self-censorship and shaming.

            And it's reasonable to expect someone yo react very negatively to an attempt to enforce unreality on them. That's the foundational psychological phenomena for both wars of religion and, I'd guess dysphoria itself. If it helps you empathize with non-trannies just think of our subjective experience of being coerced into validating what we perceive as unreality as a kind of dysphoria that you are directly responsible for. Just like your penis didn't do anything wrong but was removed for your mental health so too do we not want to have any part of your pronoun games, despite your innocence or the lack thereof.

    there are different socially acceptable behaviors depending on culture. you write a coc to be more narrow than that to avoid gray areas that can be interpreted as acceptable to some and unacceptable to others.

    the green stuff is fine with friends or in public, but for a project online it's easiest to make the box smaller so decisions are more cut and dry. it should be obvious to anyone decent what is acceptable and what is not, if you can't follow the bare minimum then you're not worth dealing with as people already put up with a lot because it's a last resort to kick someone out

      This is the sane-person way of interpreting the post. However, what the leftist is actually saying is that the box is an outrage mob, preventing totally normal people like xir from making good decisions like having an extremist CoC.

      a software project shouldn't have to dictate the way people act or speak. if you think otherwise you're delusional. no amount of forcing people to think the way you want them to will make them change their minds. you can't ask people to accept you when you don't accept them in the first place, don't be surprised people don't like you or don't want to be around you when you disrespect them. yes, this goes both ways
      what's next, let the software or the CoC decide what your pronouns are and what your next hormone injection will contain?

        If that's what he means then he's fricking terrible at analogies because I read the exact opposite. He even called the box the 'limits of socially acceptable expression' and if it's shrinking, that means that what you're allowed to do is decreasing over time in response to outrage.

          I'm vaguely aware of some recent drama about some Wayland compositor people getting banned from somewhere for being too edgy, and IIRC Drew came down on the pro-banning side. So in the OP I assumed the action being unjustly restricted was "banning bad people", or specifically

    Whenever “rules” are called “code of conduct” it typically means:

    If everyone had common sense, we wouldn't have CoCs

    then just make it to the point and relevant to the project. disallow anything controversial and just keep it a professional environment. look up the Arch CoC if you want an example, it's pretty well done imo
