GNU Kind Communication Guidelines
Lest you think this is yet another CoC, the guidelines assure you that they are not a CoC.
Announcing the GNU Kind Communication Guidelines
The GNU Kind Communication Guidelines, initial version, have been published in https://gnu.org/philosophy/kind-communication.html. On behalf of the GNU Project, I ask all GNU contributors to make their best efforts to follow these guidelines in GNU Project discuaaions[sic].
[ . . . ] The difference between kind communication guidelines and a code of conduct is a matter of the basic overall approach.
A code of conduct states rules, with punishments for anyone that violates them.
[...] The idea of the GNU Kind Communication Guidelines is to start guiding people towards kinder communication at a point well before one would even think of saying, "You are breaking the rules." The way we do this, rather than ordering people to be kind or else, is try to help people learn to make their communication more kind.
[ . . . . ] I disagree with making "diversity" a goal. If the developers in a specific free software project do not include demographic D, I don't think that the lack of them as a problem that requires action
The best way to avoid conflict and encourage diversity is to force everyone to voluntarily think alike.

In fact, women have more agency than men.
Women are in complete control of whether they reproduce.
Women get to vote without being subject to the draft.
The majority of tax monies are paid by men, while the majority of welfare benefits are received by women.
The family courts have been shown to be biased towards rewarding women and punishing men.
It's time for Masculinism; it's time for men to hold mirrors between their legs and say to themselves "You know what? I didn't want this scar around my cock; I didn't want a chunk of my sexual organ cut off and thrown into the trash just because some women claim it looks nicer this way."
