>I am not doing propaganda. I am defending what I believe to be the best
interest of the community. So, yes, I am obeying the rules about that.
I'll try to illustrate this one more time. This is a link to the guidelines
for the community that supposedly you accept:
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/trisquel-community-guidelines. Point 4 on there
states:
"The Trisquel project is part of the Free Software Movement and supports the
movement's *philosophy*. We are happy to collaborate on practical activities
with the supporters of open source, but that is not what we call what we do.
We ask those editing the Trisquel community wiki, posting to the forum, and
using the mailing list to please avoid certain *misnomers and propaganda
terms* and to keep in mind the spirit of free software and the *GNU/Linux
system*.
The emphasized words or phrases contain links. "Philosophy" links to
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/philosophy.html. "...misnomers and propaganda
terms..." links to http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html.
"...GNU/Linux system" links to http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html#why.
Now if you follow the link for misnomers and propanganda terms you will find
the following:
>"Piracy" Publishers often refer to copying they don't approve of as
“piracy.” In this way, they imply that it is ethically equivalent to
attacking ships on the high seas, kidnapping and murdering the people on
them. Based on such propaganda, they have procured laws in most of the world
to forbid copying in most (or sometimes all) circumstances. (They are still
pressuring to make these prohibitions more complete.)
>If you don't believe that copying not approved by the publisher is just like
kidnapping and murder, you might prefer not to use the word “piracy” to
describe it. Neutral terms such as “unauthorized copying” (or
“prohibited copying” for the situation where it is illegal) are available
for use instead. Some of us might even prefer to use a positive term such as
“sharing information with your neighbor.”
Therefore, by using the term you are not abiding by the rules of the
community.
Anyway, as I've read all your arguments on the topic (which coincidentally
don't seem to take into account any points contrary to yours) it is clear
that it doesn't matter what anyone states on the topic. Your mind is set,
even if your points can't possibly be valid as you are contradicting
yourself.
