Do not free/open source software activity or geek culture feel like more close to leftwing?

p.s., this comment doesn't try to refute you.

I think they meant reserved as in introverted rather than conservative.
this make sense, my fault haha.
It looks like that from outside but it really isn’t.

Stallman fir example was very clear about free software having nothing to do with communism, but of course people take just what they want from facts and ignore what they don’t want/like.

But, as i grow older, i realise itself not just software and it, it’s like that in most things.

I know free software is not communism, but leftwing do not represent communism, too. maybe I should not use the word "leftwing" here? like "A Declaration of the Independence of Cyberspace", I always think geeks toward to change society with new technologies in past stories.
