I urge people not to make a personal witch-hunt out of it.

If you disagree or agree, fine but keep the personal stuff out of it.

    ah yes, let’s take seriously the guy that spent the last two years being a literal COVID denier and the same guy that reduced linus torvalds himself as a “vaccine passport shill” with a post made exclusively to make inclusiveness look like a waste of money from the Linux Foundation

      What does a COVID denier have to do with anything? You’re trying to remove his credibility with unrelated opinions. That’s not helpful.

      If I were a physics professor and doubt the existence of dogs… what would that matter to my physics research?

      I’m tired of people trying to find an excuse to listen to other opinions.

        the problem would be if the physics professor were using his research to reach a conclusion that nudge the public view towards eugenics (it’s hard to stay in the example in this case, but hear me out)

        the problem isn’t the guy’s findings, but what he makes of it

        if you read the post again you’ll see that he uses the title to bait readers into thinking the foundation spending in projects towards diversion in software is a waste of money because it isn’t going directly into the linux development itself

          You’re changing the topic. You’re saying he is using clickbait, yet you try to steer people away from this post by giving unrelevant information that is controversal. This is not an inch better imo.

          I’m all in for calling out bad articles, but not like this.

        at least linus understood how the way he treats people sometimes is wrong and seems to be doing a better job at communicating, while lunduke just went straight into “IT’S ALL THE LIBS’ FAULT REEEEEEEEEE”
