Tell them “Great! Guess the Linux Foundation did not really need all those donations from conservative organizations, business, and users! Better to be safe than sorry right?” lol
We'll use their free stuff - but they won't get one thin dime.
Wonder if there's a way conservatives can disrupt their development processes?
You know, like The Resistance against Trump? Keep their free stuff, but mine the development roads.
Know how many conservative businesses and organizations support and donate heavily to Linux? A mass email campaign to these organizations alerting them of this situation would destroy them if they didn’t backtrack right away. I already hit the Linux Foundation with an email myself as a businessman who donates.
Read around on here.

Then came that stupid show "Freaks and Geeks" and teen geeks were taught that they should be one with the freaks.
I wonder if this show actually had a significant effect on turning geeks into freaks.
I realize it was never very popular, but if a large percentage of geeks watched it, it would still have had low ratings.
Taking my tin hat off now.
Pollute the open source then syndicate items
I like the way you think !
> ABSOLUTELY! In the tech world there are not many options and unfortunately they are liberal or liberal or liberal. Stuck between a rock and a hard place.
I hear China is working up an OS. It may be the lesser of all evils.
Than Apple?? Sorry...but I do NOT believe that. NO organization is more liberal than Apple (except in collecting money, which they do with more alacrity than John Pierpont Morgan). They wear left-hood like a badge.
Normally I would absolutely agree. But we have to remember how diversified Microsoft really is, they even own 5% of Apple. If you add up all these different companies they own or are invested in the total of liberalism influence is HUGE.

And so is Apple diversified:

Still not buying it. The intensity of left-hood at Apple is far greater than at Microsoft, and includes most of their customer base.

Actually no. Kicking someone out for a Maga hat is the worst of all of them so far.
But what a disappointment, even if not entirely unexpected.
Leftists are vindictive little shits. Perhaps we should start trying to drum them out of existence for wearing their stupid ‘Che’ shirts, glorifying a sadistic murderer.
Properly written code is neither Liberal nor Conservative!
Poorly written code can be either.
[[I already hit the Linux Foundation with an email myself]]
Any response from them? any update on the fella that got banned?
No reply yet Bob, and I just checked their site for any notices and nothing.
“Kicking someone out for a Maga hat is the worst of all of them so far.”
Especially when he wore the hat while in NY and not at the conference. As far as I can see, banning him was their loss, not his.
This kind of behavior is why a lot of Trump supporters keep their mouth shut and wait until they are in the voting booth to express their opinion.
