About 99% of the people who were involved in Python's leadership knew about Steve Holden's abuses of members--including myself--and his racism and sexism. If you see anyone from Python or Django supporting any anti-racism or anti-fascism there's a good chance they're lying.

Lynn Root also knew about Steve Holden, and even when she was in charge she did nothing about him. If you go down the leadership of the PSF and DSF, the entire time Steve has been in charge he's committed multiple CoC violations and has never once been sanctioned.

Additionally, the reason the DSF did this https://www.b-list.org/weblog/2018/nov/20/core/ … is they were called out for being almost entirely white and male, and rather than diversify their core developer group, they just shut it down and now run the "core" in secret.

When you start to dig, you find that the PSF and DSF leadership is full of secret racists and sexists being protected by the other members, but who destroy other people's entire careers over "fork your dongle". It's time they're held accountable just like you and me.

If you have access to anyone on the PSF and DSF please contact them to have Steve and anyone who protected him publicly sanctioned and punished for his actions. Stop funding the PSF until they do. Your money should go to worthy causes, not an Old Boy network of subversives.
