>and they see this quote. Immediately, it feels bullshit and dumb to them
it literally sounds like a religious cult at this point. When I was growing up I had a friend from an actual cult and the family literally had their own invented board games (which were terrible) purged of all kinds of "immoral" references because they weren't allowed to touch anything out of mainstream culture.
Whenver I see this depluralizing behavior as if non-free software causes some sort of metaphysical corruption I have to think back to this.
