I just rather want to have open-source software separate from politics if you don't mind.
EDIT: And before people saying I'm a nazi or something.. I'm not.
Having open source literally is political as it stands opposed to close and proprietary code. You can't have it without being political.
@DmMacniel @melroy It is only political because politicians are conflicted: they make money joining boards of walled-garden firms, and owning stocks in such entities. Take that away and open source would be a no-brainer.
