I honestly question the necessity of this. This is a government organization, why are the standard rules insufficient?<p>&gt; national origin<p>The President has repeatedly tried to ban people from a certain set of countries.<p>Of course I dislike codes of conduct in general. Unnecessary SJW style political correctness. Which really is just censorship and a refusal to accept anything contrary because those people are <i>wrong</i>. They are <i>wrong</i> and they must be silenced. If you disagree then you&#x27;re just another shitlord I guess. Like that shitlord Eich who got tossed out of Mozilla. That horrible person who got fired for making a joke about dongles. That disgusting tenured professor of psychology who has been pretty viciously attacked for his stance on gender neutral pronouns, even though he has made his arguments based around freedom of speech.<p>Yeah, I&#x27;m tired of this stuff. Why can it not simply be summed up as &quot;Treat people with respect&quot;. Just act like a professional, and treat the people you interact with as fellow professionals.
