Mono - does it suck?

I just stumbled across an amusing rant in my RSS reader: Here we go again - Why Mono doesn't suck. Why do I find it amusing? Because this is probably the most disillusioned rant I've read in years. It goes from ranting about "anti-Mono movements", "Software Terrorism" to quoting Thomas Jefferson to accusations about persecution. Many gems in this piece I tell you. Extremist and bias is what I peg this sort of thing as, and it really is quite funny. He starts by claiming that he'll address certain points of concern like why Mono is not a threat to free software. Of course, in the end, he does no such thing.
