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.

He's also not a billionaire. Him and Jimmy Wales are true heroes of our time. Their work has shaped the modern world yet their fortunes are nowhere near even a single billion. It seems almost absurd and dumb on their part that they didn't even make 1 billion in decades given their impact, but turns out that's just the normal rate of accumulation when you don't just sell out or steal the work of others.
This proves all billionaires are evil, abhorrent scum.
He's not a hero, he's a Zionist pig.

Considering his lack of public statements and actual support for Israel and zionism I'd argue your wrong.
Conservatively moderating a shit show that is Israeli subject matter is one thing (and I've been banned from reddit for pointing out how bat shit insane zionism is) but actively supporting the regime is a completely different thing.
