    With zero knowledge of who either person is, I’d go for the one who exercises.

    It’s the dilemma of any alternative space. People seeking alternatives don’t like the mainstream.

    And with a bit of generalization, there’s two reasons not to like the mainstream:

    1. The mainstream is too oppressive
    2. The mainstream is not oppressive enough

    Well, as long as I don’t have a stroke or something, I won’t turn into a right-winger. So trans it is then, I guess

      I think his recommended reading list still includes “the international jew by henry ford”.

      I’m a fan of old 4chan memory, Linux enthusiast, into linguistics, and off grid living. Why that space has to be just filled with irl bigots that want to deny people’s existences I’ll never fully grasp.

      Read some random comment saying he got a “trad wife” and basically quit the internet.

      Last post on his website seem to be from Feb 2023.

      I don’t think he had them all to begin with, but he lost the rest of his marbles. To be honest I think if he was a critical thinker and a bit more open-minded, he would have become an anarchist. But sadly he’s a Christian conservative.

      Also as I’ve learned more about linux, I realize he’s wrong about most things there too 😂

    I don’t get this. I know the person on the left is the trans employee from Linus tech tips, and I saw in the comments who the person on the right is but I don’t get this meme at all

      This is a common meme that you either end up as trans or a right winger when you use Linux for a long time.

      Not sure about the history, but !unixsocks@lemmy.blahaj.zone is one classic example and enough public figures like Luke or Brian Lunduke incorporate the other side.

        Soo, I’ve been daily-driving Linux for 6 / 7 yrs, and occasionally using it since 2013… How much time do I have before I have to choose? Although, given my lack of self-organization, I probably should’ve already chosen but missed the message notifying me of an upcoming / missed deadline

        Example № 1 here.

        I love how you can see his right-winginess by just his website
