Open source is inherently political. I think it's anti-capitalist and I remember how pro-capitalist people called it communist back in the 90s/00s. Saying open source isn't political is almost like saying Star Trek isn't political.
Some people choose to make open source political and that's their right, but it isn't inherently political. That is a choice one makes.
You may not have political opinions but you took political action....
Politics is "dirty", understandably. But people are mostly decent.
It is the evil powerful hideous people that make politics dirty and life bad
So acting as a decent considerate, loving even, person becomes a political act
Not good, things could be better, but it is what it is
