I think that every software is political to an extent. And even when software tries to make its "not political" is in itself this act is political in itself.

With Linus recent suspicious statement regarding the Linux kernel, I believe we should at least try to think on it or debate on it. What is the political intention behind this?

All feedback are welcome.

I think we are looking on the wrong angle. We are so focused on the AI usage that we completely ignored part that can bite us hard in the back in the future. This is me trying to untangle this point.

From my view, all software is political in some sense. And if a software claims that isn't political is a political statement in itself. And with the recent dubious statement from Linus in the Kernel of Linux. I think we should either think about it or discuss about it.

What is the political intention that is happening in this.

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.

I think that all software has a certain amount of politics in it and to say that software is non political.. is in itself a political statement.

With the mailchain of Linus... (with lack of better word) questionable quote in the Linux kernel, I think it would be good for us to discuss this issue. What are the politics behind this?
