Has anybody got a scorecard showing the progress of this ball(s)game?

I has gotton so deep in BS and personally vindictive allegations that
it is nearly impossible to keep up with who has made any possiblely
valid points, and who is erecting strawmen and/or bikeshedding every
little thing.

The only thing clear here is that there is some sort of power struggle
happening in a system that has inadequate controls to deal with toxic
or abusive leader and members. I fear that we have gotten a "Church of
Gentoo" fundamentalist / progressive / whatever . . . schism, and
there is a 'take no prisoners' attitude on all sides. At this point
all I see is talking past each other and insistance that 'only
we/I/they' have s 'right' to have their demands accepted [or else?]

FFS. EVERYONE should just SHUT UP for 24 hours and take a break.
Go out and smell some flowers (if you are able) or watch a
sunset/sunrise/moon...  Look at some stars, Watch a silly movies...
ANYTHING but this.
