I mean... they're both cancers, but I've come to realise that franky1 is largely benign.

franky1's ideals are dangerous and misguided, but no one is *implementing* those ideals.
He's all but confirmed he's never going to publish any code and isn't prepared to pay anyone to write any code.
Most developers appear to view him as a walking punchline and don't take him seriously in the slightest, so they won't write any code for him.
He's too obnoxious and demanding to work with collaboratively, and would swiftly alienate anyone who tried, so no code will be produced that way.
His personality has all the charm and appeal of a soiled undergarment, so it's unlikely he's ever going to sweet-talk anyone to write any code for him.

As such, he can't actually cause any harm.  All of the damage he could theoretically do can't actually be done.  There's no false path he can lead anyone down.  No one can lose their money listening to the unrelenting whining he does because he has no real alternative.  That's the extent of it.  All he does is make a lot of noise.  He's an annoyance, not a direct threat. 

By comparison, HmmMAA and the other BSV supporters are a tangible threat.  Their ideals exist in the real world and can cause genuine harm.  People can legitimately lose vast sums of money from buying into their dangerous beliefs.  It's a malignant cancer that could spread if not treated.
