Linux users are being likened to persons and liquidateers, sadists, perverts and all kinds of debasing and derogatory characters simply because we happen to use software that is "different".

A simple fact, nothing more. Not a judgement, not an accusation. Just something for all the wintarded idiots who seek to put down Linux and users of it to think about.
