Not only does it not make sense, they presume they know better than their poor users what their users should see and what opinion on web content they should have. If I want activist browser developers, give me teams like Brave and Vivaldi, thankyouverymuch. Both actually do things that serve the end user in their own way. Insofar as the browsers have politics, they are politics about the browser itself like antitracking, privacy and user control.

Also not American and yeah, if California would stay in California, that would be great.

That did cross my mind as I wrote the GP, but the center of it has been and is CA.

Europe: am I a joke to you?

FOSS might've been born in the US but it's not a US only phenomenon these days, let alone Californian.
