Inferring that 'viral' is pejorative is a personal problem on your part. Just learn to live with it, because it's true. If you feel so religious about the GPL that you have to make semantic arguments over what is essentially a non-point, then you have to accept that you are nothing more than annoying to people who don't care - and people who don't care are in the vast majority.
It's the same as listening to the rants about intellectual property. The terminology is the last thing that actually matters, so writing thesis length articles about why everyone should use certain words just comes off as very newspeak. It's a turn-off to all but true believers.
Don't forget the generally racist attitudes and the inability to meet more than 1 person per square mile with an IQ above their shoe size.
Although I do get a kick out of explaining repeatedly how I can stand to have neighbors that speak Spanish. One can never say "It's not really a big deal, Cletus," often enough.
Bullshit. The only way to be fair is to bring everyone down to the lowest common denominator through coercion. Remember, Harrison Bergeron had a happy ending because that overly gifted outlier was shown the error of excellence.
Enforce mediocrity! Stop making those who can't achieve feel bad. They're entitled to believe they are just as valuable to the world as people who are capable and successful.
Seems like what really happens is the rabid defenders run in to distract from the issue with lame bullshit about Microsoft being worse anyway. Congrats on jumping on that trend yourself.
It only counts as a Slashvertisement when the hivemind is upset that it doesn't promote the locally accepted viewpoint. When it's the EFF it's just good community thinking because all right-minded people agree with them.

I get your point, but logically your response doesn't refute the OP directly.
replace "Republicans" with assholes, because the whining knows no party lines around here.
Nerds love to tout their "moral superiority" over everyone else.
Since artists don't typically hold authoritarians in high regard it's all fair.
You're tough on the internet, but I bet when you're in line at the airport you're too afraid to even whisper your snide asides.
Don't bother trying to explain that around here. These intelligent, thoughtful liberals can't see past their own hatred of Bush enough to understand.
Yeah, and just to keep the math simple, we'll assume that the chickens are perfect spheres.
Cunt. Motherfucker. Cum dripping from your father's anus.
There, be offended. Also, welcome to the internet. Your old-fashioned oppressive ideas of etiquette are meaningless here.
Let's be honest here, the man could definitely sing. That falls within the definition of musical talent whether or not you liked his music.
If only every problem in life could be reduced to a specific-functionality wiki, 37signals might count for something.
Wow, you true believers really haven't come up with any new lines in like 10 years. You oughta have a conference to invent some modern insults.
So long as you figure out a way to raise bare burgers and ribeyes, I'm all for that one.

Holy redundancy. I hope all you Monty Python echo chambers feel clever for knowing a popular quote.
I don't understand why zealots are so unhappy with other people being happy with their Apple products. Can you explain?

We love the nanny state when it protects us from ourselves, but we don't want them watching.
When you pull it out of your ass like that, I agree.
Too bad that isn't reality, you'd have an ironclad argument.
Just a note about multiple workspaces: your preferences are not objectively superior in any way.
The only way to be fair is to drag everyone down to the same level. Why do you hate the human race?

Not every human cares about humanity as a whole, and it is neither feasible nor desirable to force such an attitude.

You may have missed the 'not' in the summary there.
