Language creates a barrier to entry. Willingness to learn the language then filters for certain values. To the extend that you can control the teaching of the language you can also add additional filters.
It’s true that there are free resources, but for example you can’t take the Duolingo course without also getting at least a bit indoctrinated with veganism.
That factor likely isn’t strong enough to turn someone by itself into a vegan but having many of such prompts does nudge the community in a certain direction and people who are really opposed to it won’t have as much fun learning the language through those resources.

There are free online resources for Esperanto such as http://lernu.net/ or http://purl.org/net/voko/revo/ so now it can spread beyond control mwahahaha...
