This entire thread is so cringy, this is likely my last reply.

Gulags and military tribunals were both legal. They were not policy or
procedure fouls.
They were not foibles. It was intentional and targeted.

They were ways to murder dissidents. Say what you want about our ability to
self-govern the Debian community, and ways we've messed up, we've never
killed anyone as part of the expulsion process, and the comparisons need to
stop, even if I'm still "missing the point" and people consider what happened
with anti-harassment unfair. A-H is not killing DDs. Stop comparing them to it.

It's a very simple point.
