Mozilla did cancel Eich and the fact that he was resigning out of free will is not in conflict with that assessment. We probably all know from school how easy it is to bully someone into doing quite a lot of ridiculous things out of free will. There is nothing hateful or resentful about recognizing this event and describing it in this specific way, even though there are some people who don't agree with the description. It doesn't make you a troll, "Mozilla-hating", "alt-right", "GamerGate" or part of any other team description. Those are designed to polarize. Labels like that discourage intellectually honest conversation. Mozilla is well known for their problematic culture, irrespective of the whole Eich-event. They make it a brand-statement to demand from their employees to ideologically fall in line behind their leaders. I think they should be allowed to do that, sure. I'm probably, (unfortunately) implicitly supporting it by using their browser. I'm also personally very happy to work in an inclusive, diverse and intellectually open environment where there is no such pressure to conform. I'd personally love to see a Mozilla with this kind of company culture instead of the thing they are doing right now. If someone is criticizing a company it does not need to be founded in hate or the desire to spark conflict. Mozilla is an emotional brand that started with an unusually important mission providing a life-shaping product. I use it for hours a day. Enthusiastic criticism can be motivated by users that care so strongly for the product, they spend their free time taking part debating its future with strangers on the internet. What would other brands give for this kind of engagement.
