"The GPL legally establishes a heterogeneous pool of whacked out,
delusional nut-jobs. It's the glue that binds zealots into a tightly
packed socialist amalgam. Crazies of every order are bound in an
unenforceable social contract."

The main difference to the variants of communism typical Americans
associate with the devil, however, is that participation in the GNU
communism is entirely voluntary and works on a case-by-case basis for
software.  The difference between GPLed and lighter licensed free
software is that in order to exploit a particular piece of GPLed
software, you have to play by the rules under which the software was
created.
