They aren't the "coders" of the Rust project.

If they aren't coders and are "toxic" on top of that, get rid of them? Looks like a no-brainer to me.

People upvoted my clueless comment because the assumption is that any people called "core" of a FOSS project must be the coders, or else something is wrong.

There's an easy fix. Don't comment on stuff when you don't know what you're talking about. It's pretty simple.

If you want a hint on what's wrong, here's one for you: discourse on the Internet sucks in part because of people such as yourself making "clueless" comments.

The issue is that, there is no process to do that within the Rust-lang organisation. The core team is only accountable to themselves at this point.
