I share link to golang.org all the time and I'd be willing to serve as a
testcase for this. Feel free to report my alleged crimes to the police.
Claiming that simply sharing a link to the Go page is "advocating for a
foreign political cause" is clearly a bad-faith argument, so if you live in
the kind of legal system where you aren't laughed out of the room by any
judge you try to make it to, I feel that the content of the Go project page
is the least of your worries.

Also telling that you seem to explicitly call out the Go code of conduct as
not "impacting the entire community"? Surely I misunderstood that. Just
pointing that out to make clear that "it impacts the entire community" is
pretty much par for the course for things the Go team does.
