In GNU/Linux, Richard M. Stallman made GNU, whereas Linux is controlled by a man who is controlled by the Linux Foundation, his "boss". Since the Linux Foundation is now controlled by a Ponzi scheme, the latter must parrot some "AI" talking points and even make excuses for Microsoft while having dinners with Bill Epsteingate.

To be clear, I like Linux, I like its founder, and he's still the best person for the job is managing it. But following him would mean following the money that controls him and governs his vocal chords. And that's just dangerous. █
