Other people having their own opinions isn't putting words in your mouth.

Ok then you’re making strawmen. Same difference.

FFS dude do you have so little grasp of the English language you legitimately can’t infer anything or are you just being dense on purpose?

Having an opinion and stating it isn't making a strawman.

At this point I'm just having fun pissing you off.

I'm definitely not the one being a tryhard here.

When did I call you a try hard?

Also, Linux ain't safe from corporate influence when Linus dies, either.

When did I ever talk about corporate influence in any way, shape, or form?

You’re responding to shit I am not saying. That’s a strawman or putting words in my mouth.

I guess you can't infer that other people have their own opinions. The whole thing that started this was me having the opinion that you can't trust corporations to not change in the future.

You don't have to say certain things for me to be willing to make statements of my own opinion. That's how a conversation works but I guess you must not have a lot of those in real life.

You are an insufferable child and I won’t let you waste my time further. Frankly I’m embarrassed I rolled in the mud with you this long.

Feel free to have the last word. I’m sure it’s very important to you.
