He's obviously a zealot himself, looking for "recruits" for "the cause",

He admits that. He also admits he recruits by letting the quality of the software speak for itself, and disapproves of ideological persuasion. There's a difference between a proponent ("You should see this TV show. You'll love it! You'll be hooked!") and an ideological fanatic ("You are a commie if you watch that TV show!"). The former is him, the latter, you.

I'm just here to point out the fanaticism of these people

Yet igoring your own.

Ridiculous, I'm not the one ramming something down people's throats that's tied to communism - as stated on communism.org - by creating BS threads every day or worrying about "recruits" to "the cause". Instead I only recommend American owned software, not software shared with the UN in some sort of worldwide socialist dream, and if you prefer the latter, I'm sure you'll fit right in with halfman's recruits.

Does Golden Eagle participate anywhere else on FR? I only ever see him being the solo Windows/M$ zealot on a OSS related thread. (yes, there are sympathizers, but only he has dictated the role of the quote "zealot")
