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.

You defending corpo censorship and also title has a question mark either way.
If you didn't mean to come off as bootlicker, then you need to work on that tone, "akshually"
"Akshually", so do you. You had a chance to discuss and inform, and instead you went straight to "bootlicker".
Do you think they're going to take any notice of whatever you say from here on?
I am not communicating to "them"
I am making record of bootlicker behavior for other readers to correct me or to take notice.
Consider yourself corrected then. I've skimmed your comment history. Your go-to insult is "bootlicker" or alternatively, a simple clown emoji. In your comments you seem to provide very little context as to why you think that, it's just, "I deem you to be a BOOTLICKER! Next!"
So maybe a little guidance for you:
The very, very, first thing you do when dealing with perceived propaganda - be it on mainstream media, online, or wherever - is to remove all the emotion and insults and see what's left. You know what I see when I parse your comments like that? Very little.
Thus I conclude you have nothing of importance to say, and you become background noise that gets tuned out.
Actually your comments do have some small value. I check your bootlicker-comment-score and if it's greater than 5, I know the community you posted in isn't worth my time.
Thank you for your service
