They didn't imply it's a homogeneous blob, but if they have beliefs they state and enact one can agree with those.

But who is "they"? What does it mean to be "on the same side as Rust"? What if Rust maintainers disagree? Being on a side suggests an unwillingness to part ways, which is more commitment than merely agreeing to a set of beliefs at some time. If Rust is a worthy rock in the political sphere for the moment, then there is no trouble in believing alike, but only for the moment. Every actor should prove themselves constantly, not to be orbited.
