@networkpro@infosec.exchange @argv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.org I'm not interested in forcing a square peg in a round hole, I'm just pointing out that based on your own assertion, software freedom is political.
Can you explain how it isn't?
Never did I say that it was a "left or right" issue, either.
Look back at my responses to you and show me where I asserted to you that OSS was a "social justice warrior" project 🤷 .

@yoasif@mastodon.social @argv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.org Truthfully, it's both political and philosophical. It depends on the context. Sure, it can be applied to politics, courts, and such. It just seems to me that saying "it's political" in some ways does it a disservice. That puts it in a very contentious box, where things tend to get branded one way or another. Software freedom transcends politics. I don't quite know how to describe it, but it's more than a political statement to me. That's all I was trying to say.
