The FSF should be about software, and the staff should strive not
express their feelings regarding other things. As you correctly
identify, free culture benefits the free software struggle (and vice
versa) -- however, being anti-non-free culture eliminates potential
members who would otherwise ally on free software ethics.
So I don't mind the FSF using non-free licences for their writings --
that's another battle, to be fought on different ethical premises.
What I *do* mind, is if they *advocate* non-free licences, of any
kind, for any medium.
>> Since the art in the game is not software, it is not ethically

This should be modified to say that the art does not relate to free
software ethics and are thus not considered when defining a *free
software* game. It is worth noting that at the LibreGameWiki, we
define a free game to be a game that consists of free software *and
free media*[0].

P.S.
The idea that using a non-free licence is actually useful is garbage,
and gets refuted every once in a while, including on this list.
