on a serious note I honestly thing both Charles Max Wood and John Sonmez are quite a bit of assholes but that's no reason to ban people from attending a conference unless they are assholes at the conference. Preemptive punishment is not really thing we have good experience with.

they made it quite clear it’s a CoC violation

If there is then a risk that his presence makes others (specifically, women and PoC) unsafe, then it seems to me like the right call

That's George Orvell and Philip K. Dick's dystopian ideas of pre-crime, not something we've based our civilization and human interactions up to this point...

The CoC specifically has a section about Pre-event Concerns.

So how's that working? I have a concern about a speaker. I don't like him. I kind of fear of him. I e-mail organizers and they kick him out?

They evaluate your claims and then decide to take action or not.

They seem to have been thorough in building up enough context to make an informed decision.

I still don't understand why you'd ban anyone even based on tone policing. How calling for people to stop being emotional makes them somehow unsafe?

And how feeling unsafe is actually something we want to avoid at the cost of expelling other people? There is no value in constantly feeling "safe".

Because we are further excluding already excluded people by not taking their safety concerns seriously.
