I urge people not to make a personal witch-hunt out of it.
If you disagree or agree, fine but keep the personal stuff out of it.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What does a COVID denier have to do with anything? You’re trying to remove his credibility with unrelated opinions. That’s not helpful.
If I were a physics professor and doubt the existence of dogs… what would that matter to my physics research?
I’m tired of people trying to find an excuse to listen to other opinions.
the problem would be if the physics professor were using his research to reach a conclusion that nudge the public view towards eugenics (it’s hard to stay in the example in this case, but hear me out)
the problem isn’t the guy’s findings, but what he makes of it
if you read the post again you’ll see that he uses the title to bait readers into thinking the foundation spending in projects towards diversion in software is a waste of money because it isn’t going directly into the linux development itself
You’re changing the topic. You’re saying he is using clickbait, yet you try to steer people away from this post by giving unrelevant information that is controversal. This is not an inch better imo.
I’m all in for calling out bad articles, but not like this.
