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.

I am a full blown capitalist, and I despise google and the entire online ad industry and its tracking, I'd say all of my apps (except for games) are foss or atleast somewhat open source
how are being a capitalist and despising the direct product of capitalism compatible lol?
How can someone claim to be a communist if they're still eating every day?
food insecurity is a huge problem in many places today, including in some of the wealthiest countries on the world. there aren't too many communist regimes around to blame for it anymore.
