From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The original post called it a mental illness, i was following that. Apologies if I caused offence it was not intended.

So do you also think it is a mental illness, or are you just being a middle school edgelord?

The original post referred to it as a mental illness, and claimed that was a reason to ignore their contribution. I was simply pointing out the silliness of that logic. I dont think its a mental illness, amd I have absolutely no problem with the trans community.

There are many, many ways you could have done that without repeating the bigoted belief that being trans is supposedly a mental illness.

I didnt say anything about trans people in my original comment, and deliberately didnt quote the original post as its language disgusts me. Again, sorry for any offence caused, it was not intentional.

So why did you repeat the "mental illness" part?

If you really mean what you're saying just take the L this one time and move on.

You are bad faith and trying to put words in to op's mouth you are the one that should have moved on after his second reply.
