Stallman said that Free Software has only ever existed under capitalism, is completely compatible with capitalism, and takes ideas from capitalism. Stallman complains about extreme capitalism (ie crony capitalism) which I'd a populist stance not a communist one, so stop being a retarded commie

Proprietary (including freeware) software is the only viable release model since 2022.
Any other license is getting shit stolen from you while you get poorer and eventually homeless while others become trillionaires like Elon Musk.

The purpose of free software is to create and ecosystem and community with certain values that are aligned with the interests of the user, that's what "free" means in this context.
Licenses are a means to an end.
>>108779993
No, but I do believe that FOSS must change into something more closed if we want good outcomes from it, something like source-available but you can only collaborate under certain conditions and only fork under certain conditions.
The current meta of corporations and AI getting code for free while developers starve is completely unsustainable.

As other anons already said, at this point the move is to do your public projects as closed-source shareware since your code will get stolen no matter what license you use.

>>108780186
>I do believe that FOSS must change into something more closed if we want good outcomes from it

Two things wrong with what you just said:

1) This one's just me extrapolating what you said so feel free to disregard this point, but I'm assuming when you said FOSS you meant it in the way GPL means it. You can already change this idea of free software into something else as the MIT license has done, but at that point it's no longer GPL. Hell, the FSF constantly breaks freedoms 0 and 1 already with how they denounce most distros for letting the user run nonfree software on them, so the concept of FOSS is basically open to interpretation as is.

2) We currently live in a post-ethics environment, one much more hostile to ethics than even the 90's with Microsoft's lawfare letting them do whatever they want. Mag 7 companies will simply steal any exposed code on the internet, free or leaked, and the response to complaints about this breaking license agreements will just be "what the fuck are you gonna do about it?". It's been like this since at least 2021 when art started being stolen, first for NFT's and later for image generation, and expanded to Github using all code hosted on it for machine learning, MIT license or otherwise.

>>108781612
>Thats like saying cancer is cells in their purest form
Cancer is when a small number of cell grows without limit for their own egoistical survival until they kill the whole system, it's a very good analogy for billionaries actually, they are literally cancerous cells in capitalist society and yes what I am implying is that this is the natural conclusion of capitalism.
Marx predicted this 150 years ago.
>>
>>108781676
Once you'll get a little older and a little wiser you'll find out just how much worse things would be under the natural conclusion of communism.

Q: What do "remember about communism" and "remember about the holocaust" have in common?
A: They are both used by kikes to deflect critique of their cancerous system.

>>108779848
>extreme capitalism (ie crony capitalism)
Oxymoron. "crony" means the corporations receive special favours or protections from the government. This only happens in a mixed economy, as a pure capitalist system would constitutionally not allow collusion with the government, and the government would be limited in its power so collusion is barely even possible. A populist stance (a la Trump) actually increases cronyism.

all communist organizations, correct

>>
>>108781676
There will always be a small group of people with a disproportionate amount of money, that's just the pareto distribution, one of the fundamental laws of nature.
Also the billionaires today are not the same billionaires 20 years ago. A better analogy than cancer would be a lava lamp, where individuals and corporations beat the competition and rise to the top, only to lose their initial momentum and fall behind. What is closer to cancer is the ever expanding government. We need a government but a much more limited one.

>Also the billionaires today are not the same billionaires 20 years ago
depends on you mean the real billionaires like the rothschild family, or just manufactured state front men like musk and brin

They're much less influential now than in the 19th century. If they really were a cancer they would just continue to accrue power until nothing else remained.
