I thought it was all memes, but today I browsed his site and holy shit, this guy is deranged. This is what I know so far:

>won't use nonfree Javascript at Mcdonalds
>'yo send me an encrypted mail, but don't trust the key servers lol'
>if a software isn't compatible with some OS, then the OS is imposing censorship over what programs the user can install and is inherently evil
>not like it matters anyway, because anyone making proprietary software is scum and should stop/fail
>it is wrong to protect the authors' work with DRM, if somebody else tries to protect their creation, that's an attack on your freedom
>proprietary software is an attack on your freedom too
>people complained that they didn't want free music in their iThings, thus Apple is to blame, because they instilled such shallow thinking in their users
>in order to protect your freedom, some of the things listed above should be made illegal; thus removing someone else's freedom to do something (e.g. the freedom to create proprietary software and use it to generate profit)
>ideally, proprietary software shouldn't exist. thus implying that everything should be free software (Let's ignore the fact that 95% of free software is shit and subpar to proprietary software.)

But how can I even generate revenue, assuming that the mere act of asking isn't an attack on your freedom?

>"users can easily send authors anonymous voluntary payments." (This is literally what he thinks. Let's just replace a $400 billion industry with a system where people work for free and other people give them donations in exchange.)

It's clear to me that he's lost contact with reality at least partially, also he's a commie. I could easily imagine him becoming a bomber or a terrorist of some sort with free software as a political motivation. How come he's such a fringe lunatic but nobody seems concerned?

He's right. Go back to sucking Apple's proprietary botnet dick.

Why he keeps complaining about closed source, but then literally eats a shit ton of closed source and poisonous fast food?
