It is not about being a posion chalice, rather the attitude of wanting to nuke company X, while accepting whatever it gives as gratis contributions.

I only see that among FOSS folks, seldom among other kinds of activism.

Because of the nature of the GPL. You don't get those guarantees in most other forms of activism.
