Although I would not consider myself to be conservative. I don't think MikeeeUSA's behavior would be tolerated by any mainstream political movement. He's not being targeted for his political beliefs, but for his trolling behavior. Plus, that was like one guy suggesting that it not be packaged, not a Debian wide decision or policy.

I feel like we're missing something here. His troll post resembles many reactions I've seen over the years, which come almost exclusively after some other sequence of events has brought things to that point. And what I've seen just of the way Debian does things would make me all the more surprised if he hadn't already been goaded on by 2005 with completely irrelevant issues that had nothing to do with his code.

This is all presumption on my part, but the point is, there are gaps to fill in if we want the full story.

Anything written against systemd in Debian is "trolling", so maybe you're right.
