You PROGRAMMERS think you're EXPERT enough to do shit? Take some time off making your Lisp compiler and Python anti-cudder routines and join the Hurd project http://www.gnu.org/software/hurd/hurd.html . It's guaranteed to make you 3000% geekier than you already are.

hates everyone who doesn't agree 100% with his beliefs and spends his time being an attention whore and nitpicking on license details rather than do anything decent.
What if you had no right to do anything decent? Think of the trusted computing platform. You will not be able to run anything that is not approved. How would you like to have all your software registered and approved by some regulatory commission? How would you like to be registered and monitored by some regulatory commission for possessing a compiler and debugger or going through electrical engineering? How would you like to obtain permission before you have the right to modify your own computer? It may not be in fruition now but that's the natural path that will happen if we don't oppose it. Your language also shows that you are ignorant of his plight. Where does he say he hates anyone? He doesn't. His campaign is about the USER's right to control their own computer.
he assumes people still give a crap about whatever he says
The governments in India, Venuzuela, and Austria seems to like the concept of free software rather than open source.
