You can't seriously convince me for a moment that the vast majority of the Linux community doesn't disagree with Linus.

Your task now should be obvious: Come up with an agreed-upon definition of "the Linux community", and run a valid survey.

> Every single kernel contributor must at least feel partially the same way, after all, they agreed to contribute under the existing license terms which (as Linus pointed out) can effectively never be changed.

You've established nothing more than that the kernel contributors are willing to work within that framework, not that they feel the same as Linus does.
