If one focuses on Tina instead of looking at Gerardo's history of behaviour on Debian list, and is actually in common faith trying to make sense of an extreme reaction, I suggest these links for a bit of context: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealioning * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tone_policing * https://blog.valerieaurora.org/2019/01/09/repost-how-calls-for-civility-are-harming-tech-companies/ TL;DR: there is a widespread form of oppression which consists in politely but relentlessly asking minorities to justify themselves. As long as we allow it to happen in Debian list, as I observe that we do, I do expect that somebody loses it at some point. I believe that the person who engages in sealioning, and those who enable them to continue doing so, should at least get to share in the blame.
