Although I agree with what you say, that seems to be mischaricterising the blog post - he is talking about the community rather than the software.
It is a bit like free speech and ideologies like communism. Do I support the right of people to spread communist messages? Yes. Do I support them in doing so? No. Indeed, I would pick a fight with them on the subject - it just happens that suppressing them by censorship is a bad strategy. Similarly, the Drupal Association seems to be supporting the general freedom of all software users but the people it actually supports is a much smaller group.
The specifics might not work, but building a community isn't related to the license of a piece of software.
