As Hyperbola states here on:

They do accept works stating a viewpoint as
exception and invariant sections and cover texts
as exceptions.

So they are very specific about it, and that is
fine to me to be accepted as fully free GNU system
distribution.

And it is part of universal agreement that my
opinions are my opinions and that nobody shall put
their words in my mouth, rather make up their own
opinions, so I do not see a point for free culture
movement to claim that even opinions of other
people shall be modifiable... it is a joke.
