Agree with AB here. If this was a "Simpsons" joke, a) no-one here really
got it, and b) it really isn't that funny given what's happening in the
open-source world right now with the whole #RMS shenanigans which I also
don't really truly understand nor appreciate (before my time).

In a time where the fate of FSF and OSS hangs in the balance, stuff like
this isn't welcome.

Kind regards
