He does represent the community since he represents core. If you
are unhappy with core@ talk to board@. If you are unhappy with
core@ and board@, get the community to vote for you in the next
elections, or get signatures to impeach them. They are the elected
leadership of the project.

Core has been very clear. They've asked you to revert your commits, not
other commits. If they had been unhappy with other commits they would
have asked the committers of the other commits to revert them.
