Software and Politics
jeferson.me
I think we are looking at the wrong part of the mailing list, and the consequences could be very dangerous.

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.
