it's only because the people who start open source projects to begin with are either spineless or ill-informed about what "community managers" really want (kids to groom). we, here, who know about them, choose to talk about it instead of starting open source projects...
because in the modern digital age they make up a decent chunk of the software world, which gives them cultural reach beyond their budgets, and when the programmers move on to closed source with all they've learned, beyond their scopes. therefore, it is best that we control those, not pedophiles.
it's the same reason that on earth you'd want to publish art, develop games, live in cities, run news stations, be a community manager... on a cold heartless paper all of these things seem like detriments to our fantasy ideals because they're often painful experiences, but they're often painful because we neglected them and they remain painful and harmful to our culture because we keep neglecting them.

no, it's about controlling cultural institutions (such as this chunk of the software world) so that people grow up learning our ideals instead of being groomed to want to take it up the ass.
look, don't take this the wrong way, but people like you piss me off: if "take control of things" isn't the right solution, what the fuck is?

Why on earth would I start an open source project? Or anyone here for that matter? We have lives and we value our time.

Oh I see the problem here. You still think this is about persuading anyone.
