A Just State encourages artistic expression among its Citizenry, as it cultivates Mastery and embodies truth and Coherence, inspiring future generations to pursue the same. Propaganda, while mimicking art, is a Corruption of truth and Coherence, driven by a premeditated agenda. In my view, the ability to distinguish true art from propaganda defines Taste: a perpetual ally of Justice and Freedom. Art that expresses excellence, beauty, and Mastery for the sake of preserving profound truth, not a banal agenda, is a noble aim for any aspiring Master.

Modern software firms, however, rarely share this aim. Software development has devolved into a soulless slop shop: repetitive designs, copy-paste formulas, and concepts recycled to the point that LLMs can now replace much of a software engineer’s workflow. Most corporate software is propaganda, driven by external agendas like profit, devoid of purpose or meaning. Free Software, by contrast, is true art. Crafted in good Taste by Masters of the discipline, it remains a bastion of innovation; good luck getting an LLM to innovate absolutely anything fresh or exciting in this space. This is still, excluded the Royals attempting to co-opt it, the exclusive ground of the Master, and one of the last bastions of true art anywhwere I have been able to find.

We could tactfully influence corporate “vibe” coders to adopt even a modicum of Taste, recognizing that the broader State’s Justice benefits their corporation’s stability, not to mention the higher purpose in our craft beyond mere profit. With a bit of Rebellion, we might convince large corporations that it’s in their best interest, and society’s, to not just consume FOSS code but actively support its philosophy and development. [Business models for open-source software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_models_for_open-source_software) highlights companies like IBM and Oracle contributing to FOSS to deter monopolies and gain market share; a model that could be expanded to align corporate interests with Justice.
