Mozilla fired Eich over his private political opinions; they also run a lot of programmes with a very definite political slant. I wouldn't call them "evil" but as a conservative it's not a group that I'd like to support (but then neither is Google).

So you define evil as having a political slant while judging them based on the political slant you have?
That's not how evil works.

No, I explicitly said that I do not consider them evil. You're also misrepresenting the position of those that would consider them evil; they wouldn't be evil for "having a political slant", but because the specific political slant they have is evil (which again, is explicitly not my position).
EDIT: And also, they're arguably evil by virtue of, you know, firing someone over an inoccuous political position...

Hating a group of people is not innocuous.

Maybe hypocritical? That's a grave sin when one of the main factors for choosing their browser is ideology. It is hard to impossible to buy that Moz://a is pro end user when they are in bed with Google.
I'm asking as a Firefox user that doesn't have this image at all. If you have things that I should read to update, I would be interested.
