In my view, all software is political in one way or another. Also, when software makes an attempt to be "politically neutral", in doing so it is making a political point.

So let's pick the Linus questionable part regarding the not a Social Warrior place, and I feel that it is time to either think about it or talk about it.

All feedback is welcomed.

Just to say, the more you read about politics, sociology and philosophy, harder it gets to show this type of edge connections from topics that aren't in the center... at least this is how I feel.

    Yeah, that's exactly how it goes. Your article shows an important, logical, and real piece of the larger picture of ideology and politics, but there's always going to be people who want to not understand.
