But Garrett's post was helpful in its own way. @horse_esdiscuss agrees!

And here I thought you were making an educated argument with your
explanation of the history of propaganda and public relations. When I
first read "corporate propaganda," I thought you mean the
propaganda of JS developers, not commercial corporations.
Frankly, I find the idea that commercial interests trump corporate
identity hard to fathom. If that were true, Java would be a very
different language today, and JavaScript would have long fallen into
disuse. "The community," very much exists; it's not a figment of some
PR type's imagination. Anyone claiming there isn't a sense of
corporate identity among JS developers is fooling themselves.
I'm on the side of TC39, by the way. I don't believe in democracy in
software. That's why we have standards organizations.
