See, this is how you know open source is communist, your favourite piece of software has the exact same sectarianism problems as your local Trots!
And the readmes, issue posts, and notes on merges are sort of like newspapers if you squint hard enough, too.
Some are certainly long enough or quibble-over-terminology enough to make a Trot paper blush... though they are usually a fair bit better on the signal to noise ratio, unless a maintainer's having an ideological rant they're often only long because software is complicated.
