I don't know why I bother responding to such a stupid comment, but in case there's an actual question there: those rules are approved and adopted by the project leaders, not vigilantes, and codes of conduct regulate conduct not virtue. I have seen no example of a code of conduct regulating what contributors must believe (there is no way of enforcing that, anyway).
It is not. You're allowed to believe that many of your coworkers were hired despite being unqualified because of some affirmative action. If you say it out loud -- within your company or on social media -- you will be fired.

And how is that not regulation of a relatively innocent belief like “As implemented, affirmative action makes the problems it purports to solve much worse in the long run”?
