It is better to keep unrelated issues separate. The alleged FSFE issue you mention has little to do with trusting the FSF to accurately evaluate a free software stack.

If anything, slightly grumpy old school guys (again, alleged) are much better at rejecting corporate influence than the new people whose politics are literally bankrolled by corporations.


> [again, alleged] slightly grumpy old school

I'm not associated with FSF specifically, but as a card-carrying grumpy old-schooler, I object to your vaguely-defamatory characterization of them[0] as "slightly" and "alleged".

Edit: 0: RMS et al, that is, not the business linux people.


That's a false dichotomy. There are plenty of non-grumpy people who are good at rejecting corporate influence. I know of hundreds.
