Ok, but my point is that, if you want them to switch to Linux and because you like it and seem to hate Windows, I think that’s a reasonable assumption, treating them poorly will not make that better for anyone. They won’t want to put forth the effort and as a primarily Windows user and having tried Linux on many occasions, I can say it can be a daunting task especially when you need to use the command line. In the past I can honestly say that I have had a lot of help from very knowledgeable and friendly Linux users. But please don’t deny that Linux users aren’t just a little bit elitist.
In fact I can already picture the current Linux community complaining about the state of Linux if it were to skyrocket in popularity. Suddenly it would be like, all these stupid Windows users coming to Linux, ruining the experience. Companies trying to profit off of it. I liked it better when it was a small community.
Who says humans are evil BY DEFAULT?
I think humans are shit. I think a very few are strongly evil. I mean someone came up with the idea and others actually boiled people alive. That ain’t good. The ones doing the boiling would probably not have done so without the ones who thought it up, but does that make them good by default? Also I think given the opportunity to take a million of someone else’s dollars there is a much larger portion of the population that would do it than thinking up tortures. So what’s the definition? How far do you have to go to be evil? How much do you have to resist to be good?
NOTE: I’m using good and evil as a catch-all term for what you said.
