no actual argument

I've already made the argument; the rest is just a waste of my time. I've given up trying to play pigeon chess. Your conversations with [email protected] and [email protected] show a pattern of being a confidently incorrect moron with no understanding of how anything works and then baselessly accusing people of strawmanning you – when the reality is that what you've said really is just that stupid.

Thanks for admitting to profile stalking I guess?

Regardless.

They accept donations in the app, on the webpage and offer a service that's a business just a nonprofit one, they are in fact involved in commerce. Not requiring payment ≠ not gladly accepting it. Now add to that the fact you already admitted the foundation is involved in commerce makes saying the app which is wholely owned by the foundation isn't involved in commerce they're just working controlled by a commercial business entity a moronic thing to say.

Genius.

Also you're a liar, you said you were done. You clearly aren't.

I spent about 40 seconds clicking on your profile and scrolling through a few comments to make 100% sure it wasn't worth my while to keep arguing with you. Hope that helps. And my point is that I'm done arguing the facts because it's clear you either don't care about them and/or you're woefully incapable of understanding them. I don't know which is worse, but I'm leaning toward the latter.

Yeah that's profile stalking so thanks for admitting to it again? Creepy but whatever.

You're done arguing the facts because you can't defend the indefensible.

They offer a licensed product/service.

Accept donations and take in revenue.

That's a business they're involved in commerce being willing to break even every single year to further a goal doesn't make it not a business.

Yeah, you can't win an argument so you turn to schoolyard bullying we get it Internet tough guy. Maybe make an argument or go away?
