One could argue Linux, GPL, and Open Source are all based on woke communist concepts.

Very loose definition of "leftist" there but we take a W where we can.
Why are leftists the absolute worse for gatekeeping what makes a true leftist?
Because the direction "left" doesn't actually have any inherent relationship to political ideologies, but people strive for some kind of ideological purity, especially to draw a contrast with a fundamentally unjust society?
The direction left is just an human construct, man.

The answer is that it's complicated.
“As I mentioned before, exposure to true information does not matter anymore,” said Bezmenov. “A person who was demoralized is unable to assess true information. The facts tell nothing to him. Even if I shower him with information, with authentic proof, with documents, with pictures; even if I take him by force to the Soviet Union and show him [a] concentration camp, he will refuse to believe it, until he [receives] a kick in his fan-bottom. When a military boot crashes his balls then he will understand. But not before that. That’s the [tragedy] of the situation of demoralization.”
That is chilling.
If you believe in equality, you're woke. You're also a socialist. Because since fascism is a sincere belief in inequality based on identity, while neoliberalism (democrats) is a sincere belief in inequality based on class / wealth.
So yeah, this belief in equality or basic human decency needs to be destroyed in order to maximize profit. Invest in this propaganda, great ROI guaranteed!

I've started replying "ok, dozer" to anyone who complains about "wholeness" to me. The ennui I have with the regressives is just beyond description anymore.
I like this word to describe those responsible for us all going backwards now: regressives.
I'm going to start using this
what do you mean by complaining about wholeness?
Autocorrect for 'wokeness'?
Dozer sounds too cool, now bout nappers? It sounds like the british word for diapers
I like dozer because it not only suggests they're asleep, but it also suggests bulldozer, which is what the people they voted for are doing to the country and world.
He is such a good role model for being wealthy.
He is, when it comes down to it, pretty wealthy. But we are talking about the guy who created the kernel that now runs nearly every Internet service, all Android phones, most streaming devices, and a lot of various embedded devices. Anyone else with that much impact would be a billionaire many times over.
But he's got a comfortable amount and has not exercised unreasonable ambition. A man who did someone very valuable and was well rewarded and sees no point in being any better off than he is.
how refreshing :)
I didn't know any of this man's views, I shouldve started using linux sooner
honestly, do it. if your laptop gets old, no matter windows or mac, it will be dropped by windows/apple. Linux will make it last a lot longer and run it a lot smoother. Do the switch. And you can actually have your computer the way you want it, not how apple or windows want it to be.
