Yes, you should read up on the Contributor Covenant. The creator of which is notorious for aggressively pushing to get the CoC included into projects and then harassing developers. Here's one of the more famous examples:

Also see how the creator tried to force this CoC into Ruby:

- aivarsk 9y agoThey should try to force this CoC into Linux kernel :-D
- elcapitan 9y agoOh god I want to read Linus' reply :D Better than a Netflix subscription for a year or so.
- tomjakubowski 9y agoHow about an actual example of "usurping actual contributing developers and shifting the project focus from something technical to something political."? Just trying doesn't count.
- AdamM12 9y agoDidn't these people also get upset over some projects documentation using "he"? I remember seeing a massive thread about the Issue requesting gender neutral language and the maintainer spiked it. On another note it sure seems like CoC are often weaponized by people who engage in wrong think. edit: found link -> https://github.com/joyent/libuv/pull/1015 https://github.com/joyent/libuv/pull/1015
