I suppose it's "we" the crypto bros? The articles on that blog look to me like they're either aimed at - or written by such people. And it's also embedded in some Ethereum based social network. But I have no good insight on the perspective of Web3 people. I guess they're allowed to have an opinion on RMS and the Free Software movement. I can only imagine their perspective is very different from mine.
