ESR has political motivations to oppose these CoCs, and the strongest argument that post makes is an attempt at guilt by association. I found it extremely unconvincing.
He has his political motivation, just like the CoCers have theirs. This probably applies to everyone, so it's not an argument which can be used to blanket reject a statement as such.
His political position is that open source projects should be about the code, not gender, politics and endless subjects ripe for tactical abuse and causing drama.
Personally I find that a perfectly reasonable and rational position. What fault do you find with it?
