    If Linux were called GNU/Linux all this confusion would have been avoided.

    Shut up. You're no better than Stallman

    Whoa bud... I respect Stallman, but he gets too preoccupied with "doctrinal" issues, and that lessens the impact of his message. It's kinda like have your best warrior distracted in battle because he's hung-up on how the battle emblem was designed.

    Have you noticed when a Stallman-defender responds to this, it usually involves a personal attack and makes them look somewhat fanatical as a whole? It makes their message look fanatical as well.

    "Shut up! You're just as bad!" Well, somebody has to point out how ridiculous it is. We're not going to just sit quietly as he makes the Linux community look crazy. If he wasn't so obsessively fanatical about it, you wouldn't be reading people complaining, now would you? Think about that.

    Next.
