> Nothing he’s had to say in the past 4 years has been insightful or interesting.

I personally found 3/4 of that video to be extremely insightful.

> There are more than enough voices in the Linux community that can champion the cause these days without supporting the kind of tired, identity politics and culture war driven nonsense that he focuses on now.

You need to see that between this statement of yours and what Lunduke said in his video, you are promoting identity politics and culture war, and he is actually trying to fight against it.




When I say he isn’t insightful I mean that his opinions aren’t unique. I can hear almost identical opinions from half a dozen other linux content creators who do not run a side blog promoting their far right identity politics. Maybe that isn’t giving him enough credit but Linux Sucks doesn’t seem to have changed much in content or structure from 2019, the last one I listened to.

If being tired about hearing from conservatives who freak out about the existence of trans people is promoting a culture war, I don’t know how to respond to that. I just want people to be able to live their lives and be left alone, especially if they aren’t hurting anyone. For some conservatives, this is somehow an attack against them because I don’t care to listen to their opinions on why trans people shouldn’t be left alone to live their lives in peace.


Why don't you post these other creators then instead of attacking a video based on the political views of the author? I have no idea where you got transphobia from him, but there appears to be none in the video.
