in your writing, so I am assuming it is serious. This is an incredibly
insulting statement to many people within the FSFE. You are supposed to
also represent FSFE Supporters like me and others who you insult on a
regular basis. I appreciate how seriously you take your responsibility
as a representative, but with your current communication style I have to
say you do not represent me because I stand for civil communication, not
for insults and attacks.
For me, active representatives asking difficult questions are an
essential part of a democracy.
I agree with that statement. Please re-read my comment; I did not
complain about your questions. I don't like your insults, especially in
this case when they are also untruthful. You know I made several
suggestions to improve community involvement and influence in the GA, so
I will not stand for your personal attacks.
You are very much _not_ the last man standing for democracy in the FSFE.
Democracy is not about who can yell the most or who can yell the
loudest. Your current actions are often disruptive and drown out other
people's ideas and voices in the GA. And when you ask questions, you
often fail to do so and follow up in any sort of structured way, and you
draw conclusions from details that often do not represent what the
majority in the GA actually think. Also, the last time you asked for
community feedback in person, you afterwards failed to answer any
questions about comparing your stated goal with the outcome and you
report stayed anecdotal. Please be more constructive; I want to work
with you, not against you.
Happy hacking!

Hi Daniel,

Disagreement with a specific implementation of an idea does not mean not

other people do care about it so much that they stopped contributing
Perhaps I missed that and then I apologize, but did you bring that up to
the GA with specific examples?
The constructive thing to do is get more people involved in the
discussion about what comes next rather than using a reference to the
CoC to censor how people discuss it.
A call to order is also a normal part of democracy because it keeps the
discussion civil. No one censured you; we are simply asking you to
refrain from attacks and insults.
Happy hacking!
