- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
4. No recent reposts

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures
We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

Oh hey, the Jordan Peterson experience!
Pretty much. It seems to be the way a lot of these grifters go.
Even Tucker Carlson. I'm Canadian, so I knew nothing about Carlson when I first saw some clips about him (like 8 years ago now). And in those clips he said some innocuous and fairly reasonable things. Then YouTube's algorithm did what it does best (you watch one new type of video and then that's all it shows you for recommendations) and then I started to see the "real" Tucker Carlson and was grossed out.
Seems to be a common formula.
oh look, it's me with Prager U and their piece on Modern Art.
"These idiots are shitting in jars and putting balls in folmaldahyde and calling it art. That's bullshit" You're right!
"The true reason for art was for JEEEESSUUUUUSS" Fucking hell no.
I remember seeing JP on YT when he wasn't really that famous yet, arguing against that Canadian law about not using the correct pronoun for someone being a criminal offense when regular swear words aren't and I thought okay, that's reasonable I guess, inconsistencies are bad. Let's see what else he has.
And then came the lectures about natural hierarchies or something and some other things where I went okaaay, I guess I don't have the full context of his lectures. Suspense of disbelief and such.
But three videos in and it was clear. Glad I got off that train before it left.
