Double standards

"""Linux""" fans when there are hundreds of GNU/Linux distros happily recommending proprietary software and pressuring people to install proprietary malware: "This is fine"
"""Linux""" fans when there are a very small number of GNU-endorsed GNU/Linux distros complying with FSDG and excluding all proprietary software, going against the almost-overwhelming current of distros which don't care about software freedom: "Nooo, this is oppression, you can't force your software freedom on me, this is censorship, people should be free to be used by proprietary software, it's Linux not GNU/Linux, here's a copypasta so I can own you (insert mean copypasta about Alpine meant to mock GNU and the term 'GNU/Linux'), you are such entitled nerds, why do you force me to use free software by maintaining a very small number of FSDG-compliant distros that I'm not even forced to use due to the high availability of hundreds of careless distros which happily provide me with proprietary malware? Also, I bully Stallman"
This may seem like a strawman but it's true, oppressive anti-social networks such Crapdit ("Reddit") and You"tube are full of people like this who mock the ideals of GNU. Obviously I don't wanna run proprietary JavaScript for ethical reasons so I browse these networks through non-JavaScript-requiring frontends while trying to avoid giving my data to these abusive places by e.g using Tor, but using a frontend doesn't actually get rid of the anti-ethics mindset in those abusive places, so you will see many people mocking ethics and stuff.
Double standards are almost always horrible maybe always even.
I don't have a fondness of liars or haters either as a somewhat random mention especially if they don't admit that's what they are doing.
This being said, they shouldn't mock FSF or GNU, because that's how "linux" as they call it started.
I do find fault on some things FSF and GNU do, but as a whole, I think their intentions are good and they try their best.
