Just how fucking dense do you have to be in order to be surprised that a man who created one of the most popular operating systems on Earth, and then gave it away for free, might be a leftist?

He didn't created it alone and "then" gave it away for free. Since it's begging Linux was free and that created a community who made it the most popular OS.
Yes. It's called summarizing. Obviously it's a bit more complicated. I'm not writing an essay on the history of Linux here.
Well it's due tomorrow by the end of class, Mr. WoodScientist, so you better get cracking.
Lol to people that believe this is left. This is central. You know there is a party to support these beliefs? It's called the libertarian party, Google it. You didn't have to vote for someone who doesn't represent you as a person regardless of what the Internet says!?
I think he isn't a leftist, but just reasonable
All it takes to be a leftist these days is to not go out of your way every day to be a raging cunt.
In the USA the republicans simply are such morons currently that anything reasonable appears to be leftist.
I'm center-right in Austria but US-americans would call me a woke communist (and in many regards I'm more leftist than the democrats).
I see a lot of overlap from where I'm standing.
Maybe it's just the .world folks but yeah somehow "leftist" on this site has come to mean "left of the American center"...
Rare Linux W
If by rare you mean extremely common
