Unfortunately, the ideals that gave rise to GNU/Linux as we know also have compatibility with political ideologies, so there is a syncretism between the Open Source movement and certain political ideologies

It's not a perfect connection. There are those who are against free markets, Intellectual Property etc. that develop open source software. Most of the cryptosphere is also open source; yet remain pro free market, privacy and meritocracy. I don't know of anyone being banned from crypto projects for supporting the wrong political party. We still have hope.
We have hope, but many projects are contaminated by this syncretism, and that is undeniable. However, I believe that, as time goes by, this will be reduced, and that these projects will continue to be just minorities
What matters in this case is that we maintain our individualities. The crypto scene and web3 are much more plural in this sense, and I believe that the right direction for us to take in all projects is to follow this example, and not impose our political opinions on others or ban project contributors simply for not following our personal ideas. outside the project
Of course, it's just my opinion
