  • Yeah I didn’t mean that FOSS was born out of communism, I believe culturally/antropologically speaking is more a direct product of the hippie movements from the 60s.
    What I meant is that FOSS is aimed at “giving the means of production back to the people” and “rejecting the privatization of intellectual property” (Stallman talked about those concepts in many interviews) and those are of the core principles in Marx’s philosophy.
    I know that for some people “communism” can be a trigger word, but there’s a big difference between a philosophy and an authority.

    Also “empathy, humanism, solidarity…”: have you ever interacted with people on GitHub?
