It seems normal that Linux users confuse developers writing Free software they can use with those same developers performing acts of physical violence and intimidation.

I have no idea why this is so, but it seems a reoccurring theme.

I think it's the fault of GNOME marketing.

They make it sound like GNOME is a service to the community, instead of a loosely-knit team of individuals scratching their own itches.

Sounds familiar?
