The community creates content. If the Foundation is involved in the community, they are indirectly involved in content.

Incorrect. If the Foundation get involved in /content/. There's a distinct difference between not being involved in content and not being involved in the community.

Meta is a website run by the WMF. Section 230 is specifically about making people that run websites not be liable for the actions of their users. You're not making any sense...

With circular arguments like that you will never get anywhere.
Please also consider heeding Nathan's advice and consolidating your responses. (Not everyone likes to get a tens of 1-sentence e-mails from a single person in their inbox.) You can do this in many ways by actually writing more in-depth replies or combining responses in 1-email i.e.

Another thing you might want to consider is not top-posting / snipping un-needed portions of message when you are replying. (If you are posting as many times to the list as you are lately, proper etiquette is even more important to observe.)
By that logic, the Foundation could not hold Board elections, discuss on the mailing lists, or conduct the fundraiser, as it involves being "involved in the community." This is different from being involved in the editorial model of Wikipedia, which they are not.
