They are not anti-LLM, otherwise they wouldn't have said about running llm the solarpunk way.
I agree on your point, if they just stated "I think that making it with an llm is a problem because xyz" I wouldn't have answered that. Identity politics is very much in the how not in the what you believe in.
We are on a solarpunk forum, if we don't talk about technology and politics with nuance where the hell can we do it? The rest of the internet is already full of low context low effort answers; OP tried to improve the funding situation for supposedly good orgs, we should be criticizing if the approach is right etc, not just shooting a "oh traces of llm then why do u use llm?"
Edit: actually asking "why" would have still been better instead of the lowkey "llms pollute"
