Debating The Linux Cultist Fanatic.****** A Short HowTo

And you are trying to be as unfair as possible using terms like 'cult' and 'their trash'. Are you qualified to judge either one?

Misdirection to a claim about a specific package that means nothing about the OS as a whole.

Paranoid garbage. Everyone isn't part of the same group, and I'm sure almost no one is having conspiracy discussions offline.

Another fair and unbiased, knonwledgeable buttessment? Two attacks in the same sentence, neither one supporting your statement.

Conflicting statements like this suggest a lack of understanding of the technical terminology; if you are trying to understand others, you have to make allowances for mistakes. Holding people in casual discussion to formally-exacting accuracy is failure on your own part.

This is the single complaint that I thought had merit here. It is a serious disadvantage of an OS that the user has to switch from one to another, let alone reinstall or switch packages. As far as I am concerned, an OS is only good if the user can forget about it entirely.

This is a casual comment, usually contributors that are makign fun of others, not people intending to make a real comment about the thread. Sometimes the discussion isn't entirely serious, you know.

You have fooled yourself. I'd bet less than 1 in 1000 of the contributors in a group have any way of contacting another offline.

In a pro-linux group? It shouldn't alarm you when you attack someone's decision. It isn't always a matter simply of an accurate comment; you also have an implicit attack, which generates a response.

Implies that people get real damage by being disagreed with -- alarmist.

Okay; I found some pretty fair comments. Far too many negative ones to accept that this is a Linux user's intro. If you are the author, what is it you thought others would get from this? You introduced it like it was going to confirm your 'cult' term, or verify the attack mentality you were claiming. Instead, you have me believing you can't be trusted to make any fair or accurate comment at all, and so destroyed your own efforts.
