Yeah, if you put it right there from the start you can avoid the political polarisation event at its introduction. I feel like in the early days of the internet people acted like the interactions with other people weren't "real" interactions and that people shouldn't be upset at conversations that wouldn't occur at the grimiest of dive bars. It seems this aspect of online culture pervaded some aspects of developer culture as well (it seems some really unprofessional behavior is tolerated in some places). Having a code of conduct that essentially says, "We expect you to behave in our online community like you would at a company barbecue," can get there. I don't think calling attention to particular types of bad behavior is a good idea. Nobody has succeeded in drawing a bright line through gray areas yet.
