Your post is so full of hyperbole on many fronts that I'm beginning to conclude that your main argument is rather weak and that you merely have an emotional stake in al this - an emotional stake that is void of logic or that causes you to stretch truth in an effort to make a point.
Tone down the over-statements and your artuments will hold more weight for us observers on the sidelines.
I'm not all that concerned about where some people might land.
Bill Gates has been a thief, a cheat and a liar all his life. The evidence is there if you want to find it.
If you are the kind that worships at the altar of Gates, Allen and Co,...
...the kind that thinks that the crushing of Stac Software via baseless lawsuits is just good business, ...
...the kind that thinks that viciously attacking the open source movement and funding spurious SCO lawsuits while at the same time giving away your source code to the Chinese Communists is perfectly ok, ...
...the kind that thinks that having money forgives all your crimes, ...
then where you land is pretty much already predetermined, isn't it?
Now if I said, "Remember kids, when you buy a PC with Windows on it, you're funding the Chinese Communist takeover of the world!", that would be hyperbole.
At least, it would be today. Of course, those people who thought Joe Kennedy was a nut for supporting Hitler were pretty much shouted down too.
How'd that philosophy work out for them?
This is typical of fanbois around the world. We are confronted with a world where one's preferred solutions are playing second fiddle to something that is obviously (in the fanboi's mind) inferior, so we must come up with an explanation for why such an inferior product has surpassed our obviously (in the fanboi's mind) superior product. So we have all sorts of theories about how the evilness/immorality/deviousness of the competition has, in fact, allowed them to triumph. I.e., the only way a better product can lose in the marketplace is when the lesser products "cheat" somehow, and the fact that such things have happened repeatedly throughout western history without any "cheating" is simply ignored.
When the best man loses, it's because the other guy cheated, and the fanboi's mind will permit no other explanation. Notice the similarity in tone and rhetoric to the fanboi, and, say, Louis Farrakhan, with all sorts of oddball conspiracy theories, presented with all the requisite bile and venom, to explain why The Man holds black people down - when The Man isn't busy holding Linux down, that is.
