Care may lead you to develop options.
Listen, I hear your frustration. But you are not carefully reading my
words (which apply to anything, not just software).
To declare that you "do not care" is not the same a "making a
decision". That is the poor language used by the OP in TFA which I am
taking to task.
What I feel is happening when some people say they "don't care" - and
I loathe to say it but it's mostly US Americans and so I think this is
a cultural problem - is that they're really saying they're not
prepared to fight for something important. That kind of nonchalant
"styling it out" is really a kind of sour grapes, as when a spurned
teenager says "So what if I didn't get invited to Mary's party. I hate
Mary and didn't want to go anyway!"
Pretending not to care is not the same as an active decision.
I hope it makes sense that it's about language and attitude, not the
predicament of Debian specifically.
