       | The issue through this whole incident was the fact that Tim
       | Peter's ban looked like _intimidation_ rather than _punishment_.
       | 
       | The Python SC was floating a contentious proposal without
       | justification, and Tim Peters forcefully called them out on it.
       | Repeatedly.
       | 
       | And, in return, it feels like the SC went hunting for
       | justifcation to throw a ban at him.
       | 
       | That is a bad look no matter what you think of Tim's actions.
       | 
       | This SC needs to go even if they are right, and Tim is wrong.
       | Period.

         | Could you provide a quote that demonstrates "Tim is wrong.
         | Period"?
         | 
         | I'm familiar with the context.

           | My comment is that the SC needs to go _even if I concede
           | their point that Tim is wrong_. It doesn 't actually matter
           | whether Tim is right or wrong simply because what the SC did
           | _absolutely looks like harassment regardless_.
           | 
           | At this point, I'm thinking that CoC's all need to be updated
           | with "Leadership gets to use the banhammer, but it costs them
           | their seats for some number of election cycles."
