Every once in a while, RMS makes a statement that doesn't require translation to avoid seeming ridiculous:

"When any program fosters non-free software, that works directly against the overall goal.

"Copyleft is our method of making sure that our free software does not generate nonfree competitors which consist of our code plus something else that is off limits to us."
