Looks like a confused Swedish dude that when questioned about his use of English pronouns defaults to not wanting to get political. Is there more besides a misguided decision to avoid relevant political topics?

I think we should chastise people that insist on not getting political, but not necessarily boycott everything they do. Or at least we should apply the same moral demands to Mozilla, Apple, Microsoft or Google when choosing which browsers to support. Which of them is the least bad?

There is nothing political about acknowledging peoples' existence.

Don’t think we should be scared of the word “political” or “ideology”.

Yeah, that too... Everything is political if you want to really get into it. People just want to be able to ignore it until it directly affects them.

Indeed. It’s a privilege to be able to stay inside your little circle and say “we don’t do politics” or “ no ideology here”.
