It *is* so simple (see below).

My take is: I am a fan of Debian. I don't want systemd on "my" computer.
Systemd is the default, and their proponents are no idiots and I assume
good intentions. I accept that their viewpoint is as valid as mine.
So it is (in part) on me to keep Debian without systemd a viable option.
There are many dependencies on systemd (e.g. Gnome) which aren't Debian's
fault. No problem for me, since I don't particularly care for Gnome, but
perhaps there are other needs.
As I see it, there are quite smart people on both sides of the debate
and it seems best to try to get along instead of slinging accusations
at each other (both sides have been very effective at that, and
sadly, I'm not innocent in this either. I regret that).
Let's just roll up our sleeves, drop the insults (and ignore those).
