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.

I have trouble imagining ever being proud of being a communist. It's right up there with all the bad things in society.
Oh? And where do you experience communism?
Truly a stupid question. Go and try to be witty somewhere else.
It's a stupid question because you obviously and constantly encounter communism or because your conviction is stronger than your argument?
What's to argue? We've seen what communism does, it's a closed fucking case unless you are willfully ignorant to reality.
I suppose you are talking about that mythical perfection of communism that can never exist so long as humans remain unchanged.
I'm as willing to argue this as I am to argue against a flat earther. Both are pointless and arguing against it only validates something false.
So find someone less wise to argue with, because I'm bluntly, too fucking smart to fall for either trap.
We've seen it? Where have you seen it?
