User and distributor are not two distinct or identical groups with
free software.

Simo is playing the man, not the ball here.

But then, I am a bit bitter that FSF's hypocrisy in updating their
basic texts to match their leaders' actions isn't more widely-known
when me and my projects get such a bad press from FSF supporters.
What long-time supporter wouldn't get a bit fed up with the original
proponent endlessly rewriting its own core beliefs?  How can we build
stable shared alliances if the common ground keeps getting moved
without agreement?

I don't mean to be confrontational, but sometimes I'm at a loss of any
other way to highlight FSF use of tactics like lock-out, ret-con,
hair-splitting, and so on.

Hope that explains,
