It certainly means the OSS community mostly represents interests of middle-class students and tech professionals who have the free time to contribute.
The open knowledge/open community ethos that OSS is part of is empowering, but it is opposed by the same capitalist forces that oppose the social safety net (and lots of other social justice issues.) Unfortunately there are people in the OSS community that say "code has no politics" who don't understand that.
