    He’s an anti-woke crusader and bigot. A large chunk (probably most) of his “content” is actually about that.

    CW all sorts of bigotry

    “Best Alternatives to Woke Software”, “Devuan: The Non-Woke Debian Linux Fork”, lots of shit like that.

    He loves talking about so-called “reverse racism”, he thinks white people are oppressed in US tech.

    Here’s a recent one:

    They [Meta] are allowing criticism of LGTBQ+blublublub issues, including *snicker* the statement that gay people are mentally ill […] and they’re allowing vaccine skepticism on the platform […] and it is, I’m not gonna lie, mildly hilarious.

      Wow. I thought a couple of his old Linux Sucks talks were kind of funny, but never knew anything about him personally. Kind of sad to learn he’s an asshole.

        I mean the dude is literally Jewish and pro Israeli, it isn’t even surprising he would have an L take like that

      doesnt a free and open source operating system fit the definition of “actively attentive to important societal facts and issues” where the issue in question is not having control of your machine?

      By its nature isn’t Linux technically woke?
