I just learned Linus torvalds has the correct political opinions
So this motherfucker might be the most remarkable man on the planet

OK, fine, you've convinced me. I'll watch his Tech Tips show.
At risk of exposing my inability to read a joke: wrong Linus
Linus was always a better face for Linux anyway. We can collectively do without creepy toenail eating guy.
Could be worse than RMS. Could be ESR.
I'm glad I don't know who the fuck that is
More like we ran out of luck due to the failing US medical system, he was a piece of shit but he didn't deserve to get fucked over with his mental health like that.
Linus and excoriating dumb asses. One of the best duos.
Hell, he doesn't even have look for it, it finds him. Geez.
We're all woke communist propagandists on this blessed day
Linus is our Notch.
He's the goat.
Linus didn't sell out though and become a neo-nazi billionaire. He's a woke communist through and through!
Is he an actual communist or just a woke communist?
Most nerds his generation are mostly libertarians if they didn't go the silicon valley elon techbro alt right pipeline. RMS was a libertarian and had a lot of brainworms.
If you asked them he'd probably say he's a demsoc judging from his reaction and that he's finnish
Damn, if you tell me that he's against genocide next, then he's a tanky confirmed!
Ok but does he actually have the right opinions? Because the NYT is an imperialist capitalist rag. Like I would love to find out that Linus is genuinely a Communist but I would hate to find out that he's just a Liberal who calls himself a Socialist because he's confused about what the terms mean
He's a Finnish millionaire so he's closer to demsucc than ML but even demsuccs can shut down reactionary assholes. I don't think he would spew propaganda uncritically though like most liberals.
Europe is a weird place politically compared to the US.
he writes like a liberal twitter user so i'm going to go with liberal.
Maybe he doesn't have the time to form the correctTM opinions about everything that exists in the known universe. I just look what he's doing and has been doing for the last 3 decades: writing an open, free and secure operating system that everybody can use. Linux is IMHO the proof that something like communism can work in the real world. Nobody owns it and you thousands of people work on it from all around the world. If people can collaboratively write software together then we can theoretically do everything together. Also: our modern world wouldn't be possible without Linux. It runs everywhere. Windows is just on a tiny fraction of all computers.
