The thing is, source code doesn't know anything about a code of conduct. There is no way for the repo to know if it's being cloned by a communist ally or an actual human.
Don't forget that these scumbags have been using software written by normal people for decades to satisfy their needs and advance their causes. Stupid anti-capitalist idiots on iphones or a deliberate mindful decision, doesn't really matter. Rejecting the use of something useful for failing a purity test isn't very pragmatic.
Although I did talk about Lutris, and KiA is gaming centric (maybe still?), non-entertainment software is something to be used. Unless we all want to go back to CPM and 16 bit PCs?
Give these Linux orgs money? Hell no. And using paid commercial software (or using Microsoft software which spies on you for financial gain) gives them money. But I don't see a practical reason to not use a hammer that's just laying on the ground in front of me just because its imagery is part of the hammer and sickle.
