Well that's disingenuous. You specifically brought up that the GPL is a non-coercive agent for freedom. Now that we've demonstrated that it is coercive, you moved your fence posts.
You're really tied up in the the history of liberty and freedom, and act like it the matter is all tied up and resolved. But very little could be further from the truth!
Even more important, you keep attempting to draw parallels to enlightenment thought on freedom, when the modern thought on the matter has come a long way since then and to anybody who seriously studies all of the eras of liberal thinking, the GPL is not a particularly interesting or conforming philosophy.
It parallels totalitarian philosophies far more easily than any democratic of liberal thinking on the matter. A country based around the kind of self-perpetuation at all costs kind of philosophy the GPL is built around would be a dystopia.
When its been demostrated that your arguments has dismissed in 17th century, you start to lash out agressively.
If you had proof of "the truth", you would have written it. Like a ideologically driven and uncritical thinker, You Know The Truth! You are the modern thought of today. Not that you have to mention what that modern thought is, since obviously, you already possess it.
I could sit here and explain to you how none of the above post says GPL is a non-coercive agent. Liberty can never be non-coercive, and despite claims of otherwhise in this discussion, none has provided an example of a liberty that can be enforced non-coercivly. Liberty has to employ coercion, or liberty is just empty word with no meaning.
