OK, I think whether or not to take stances is a bit beyond the topic here and it is not my original message (my original message is "please do technical stuff in technical channels and do non-technical stuff somewhere else" BTW). I personally conclude this (whether or not to take stances) like the below, you can express different opinions of course.
- If any ones or groups inside Rust community want to make a stance and an announcement on non-technical issues, feel free to do it.
- Do it with your names (group names, your masked ID....).
- If any ones or groups think being silence means something and you must say something, be ready for whataboutism (just a kind reminder).
- If any ones or groups think a political involvement is needed, then do it, (again) sign your names and publish it on specific channels like politicians do. A vague "Rust Team" is not an appropriate name as it involves too many people who may or may not want to get involved and a channel like Release Announcement is not appropriate as it involves too many audiences who may or may not want to get involved.
For pragmatic discussions on practically what to do, I would suggest go to my another post -- please-separate-technical-and-non-technical-announcements before this post gets too long to read and get involved.
