I recall a proposal in Godot which suggested to hire a full time marketing person. This is exactly how cult communities tend to fixate on promoting their ideology. Why not just make the product speak for itself?

Even then, Godot doesn't need a marketing representative, because Godot's toxic leadership achieved this by making a cult out of Godot already. Proposals like above are simply a byproduct, because the process of promoting Godot is built into their ideology.

Godot followers will go out of their ways and suggest Godot in other unrelated communities. They'll write bad reviews on other engines to make Godot stand out. They achieve their superficial and unrealistic image of superiority by putting others down.

Mind you, I look at this from the perspective of someone who's truly interested in studying Godot cult community from the socio-psychological perspective, all as a former member of Godot now. The unconscious processes that happen in Godot cult community are simply staggering.

Marketing proposals as you see above stem from Godot's lead developer with his rhetoric of "nobody knows about Godot", which is constantly regurgitated by Juan, cult leader. Godot followers feel obligated to promote Godot, since Godot is offered for free.
