The intro is great. He’s got all the Linux meme’s nailed

    I’d like to preemptively direct prospective commenters’ attention to rule 6 about public figures.

      For the lazy

      6> . (NEW!) Regarding public figures

      We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.

      Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement. We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated. Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.

        Lmao. What an unbelievably stupid rule. “Just pretend everyone is cool even if they’re a total loser or whatever”

          You can say whatever you want about whoever you want, but this is not the place to litigate those issues. This is “Linux Memes”, not “Linux Circlejerk”. Have your Spicy Hot Takes somewhere else.

          If you have an issue with a post because it’s about or was made by a person you disagree with, kindly downvote and move on. Throwing a tantrum will never be productive.

            Just say this isn’t the right place for it. No need to debase yourself and call it a tantrum.

          Nah he was right about Linux so be quiet about the racial slur stuff for sure.

          Yeah, that rule is stupid and short-sighted.

            Someone drops a bad word and you want to cancel them? “Why is everyone moving to the right?”

      Sure, we’ll all just ignore the fact that Tux tried to circumvent totally legitimate and logical tariffs because of rule 6.
