  • I mean, one of the central goals of communism to abolish ownership of the means of production.

    Software used to produce something of value is a resource that in a communist society should not be owned. The only way to achieve this is to let everything be opensource.

    So communists clearly like the free software movement, whether inverse is true is a matter for debate.






  • No, I’d say you have to look at it more like eating habbits. You won’t convince someone who’s in his 50ies and all his life only ever ate fastfood to eat healthy. It’s objectively better for them, deep down they might even know it, but the force of habbit is just to strong.

    There is a best choice, but not everyone want’s to hear it. You can’t convince everyone and have to pick your battles.
