I don't have a personal political agenda here.

I'd love for GNU cryptography to be better, but the first step in fixing problems is to acknowledge they exist in the first place.

GNUnet, GnuPG, etc. need to actually learn from modern cryptography projects like age and Signal, instead of doubling down in the name of ideology.

I have no clue on what "ideology" they (who are they? The GNUnet developers? The gnupg developers? all developers associated with GNU projects?) are "doubling down" on in your opinion, despite reading the article.

Just stop. If you have criticisms, make them. Leave your politics out of it.
