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.

What are you on about? Nothing you say has any relevance to what I said or to what Vaxry said. Go back and read my comments. I said this:

Vaxry is making it as clear as possible that he will make zero commitment to oppose toxicity in his community and people took his word for it. The idea that he was punished solely for a couple of comments that happened years ago and are definitely “fixed” is Vaxry’s own misleading interpretation.

And then I quoted Vaxry's own posts showing exactly that. I didn't claim that he is a nazi and I don't have to prove to you that he is. No one cares. Welcoming nazis into his community and advocating that we should all be doing the same is the problem. Whether he is a nazi or a "dense idiot" is a question only you posed. By his stance alone he is creating exactly the type of unsafe and toxic community other people want nothing to do with. That's all that needs to be said. Your statement that this was only a "Discord dumpster fire that was thankfully put out months ago" is plain false. My comment was a statement of fact. Nazi salutes and proof of malice are irrelevant to any of this.

Seriously, what even is this level of strawmaning?

You’re saying that he is secretly saying “hurr hurr I am a nazi and this is how I get away with it.”

You need to work on yourself if this is how you react to people online simply saying a fact that annoys you.

Also, don't bother writing another long meaningless comment. I don't care to convince you. It's clearly impossible, anyway. My previous comments were to bring Vaxry's actual quotes and political stance into this thread because I knew people would either lie or genuinely not know about it. And now this one was to point out the dishonest debate tactics that most pro-Vaxry comments use, where they try to "win" the argument by moving the goal posts, misrepresenting the facts (deliberately or not), and twisting other people's arguments. Now that all of this is in the open (in this thread at least), there's nothing to talk about.

Alright, bro. Let's leave it at this point, then.

I'll just add that I do agree with you in many aspects. Welcoming nazis to a community, closeted or not, is bullshit. I would never do that. I would uproot those motherfuckers and kick them out for good.

I just don't think that Vaxry is one of them - maybe he is one by association, as in "you welcome nazis? Then you're one!" But from where I am standing, he's just a privileged moron who thinks that life is simpler than what it really is.
