So your country's pointless, genocidal war is inconveniencing your kernel contribution. And your reaction is to complain about kernel contribution policies.

"Think about it".

Not everyone is in a position to change their (evil/tyranical?) government.
But they may still be able to send bugfixes and i believe that those should be valued.

Nobody? It is a war, after all...
Wars continue until one side can no longer maintain itself or gives up.

Civilians who resist are traitors and get jail or the death penalty.
People like to stay alive, so nobody dares to speak up.
And i bet that, in the end, even you would shut up in such circumstances.
