It's always the people who write the least amount of code that have the most amount of opinions on other people's code license.
To each their own.

It's always the people that did something bad the ones that double down to hide the fact that they did it and everyone found out.
Don't double down, bro. Own the L, it's OK.

Not nice.
Licenses are not really related to code but more to legal frameworks. You don't need to be a dev to know about licensing and you don't need to be an advocate to choose the one that fits you best. But freedom advocates have so their choises.
Choosing =/= bitching
No one is entitled to your code, whether to view it or modify it. People can trust closed source and read-only code just fine. Source viewability is not a moral issue that can be gatekept.
