Parts of this are highly inaccurate and misleading. Linux is called
democratic because users decide what get's in the kernel, while FreeBSD
is called republican because it has a core team. If we takes these
political analogies, then Linux is more like a dictatorship because only
Linus decides what goes in the kernel.
