PewDiePie made a video on why he installed Linux and explained why everyone should do it too. Due to his number of followers, this might be the year of the Linux Desktop? Hooray?

    Can we reserve that word for actual Nazis that want to commit genocide, not edgy 15-year old like personalities?

    What he did with the sign was arguably very cringe, but it’s pathetic to compare that to someone who actually believes X group of people deserve to die.

    If we label everyone a Nazi, the word means nothing and when actual Nazis show up(they are) we’re fucked.

      It’s long past being meaningless at this point, other than just a red flag of a toxic individual.

        I love my Lemmy client having the ability to label people. I already had you labeled as a Nazi apologist before opening this thread so it tracks to find you saying this here.

      PewDiePie is the most basic kind of cryptofascist hiding behind a veil of edgy humour and he should not be welcome in the open source community

      We reserve it for the “hitler did nothing wrong” crowd.

      I don’t care if it’s edgy or ironic or earnest because I have no way to know that. Also, if you fuck goats just to be edgy you’re still a goat fucker.
