A few abusive people trying to execute the Code of Conduct scam on Haskell. It worked for Scala, due gullibility. It did not work for Haskell, due intelligence.

I'm afraid I don't know what the Code of Conduct scam is.

So, you know these things, politicians. Right? Bit hard to explain on twitter.

Do you just mean the existence of a code of conduct?

Not necessarily; that is not the scam itself, but yes almost all current existences are scams. This CoC is not a scam: https://gist.github.com/tonymorris/90522094bb964fd0d7bb42acd43ff4fb …

So "scam" in this case refers to something well-meaning people do in good faith to try to be more inclusive and welcoming. Ugh.

I'm not arguing in favor of a code of conduct. I honestly don't know if they do more harm or good. But the name-calling surely doesn't help. :(

I do know if they do more harm or good. "Well-meaning people" is not an excuse. What name-calling?

you can't be "more inclusive" by actually excluding some because others decide they don't want to interact with them on a purely professional level

The clusterfuck that is now Scala is a great example of this. Aside, "well-meaning, incompetent do-gooders" reminds me of childhood.
