We should be allowed to insult each other. In general. But here is the thing - if should be non discriminatory. The bullshit and idiocy should be called on spot without taking into consideration the race, gender,age, color and attitude towards my little pony of the offender.
So as long as Linus treats everyone as a inferior retard until proven otherwise it is ok with me.
I think racism and sexism (and lots of other isms that split people on us and the others) don't have place in a society but I will fight very hard for the right of the people to express misanthropy.
TL DR: As long as Linus insults everybody it is ok.
- PavlovsCat 13y agoIn the words of Linus, that's bullshit, and you're stupid for even suggesting it. If hating a subset of something is bad, then how is hating the whole better? Because it's more "fair"? It's also a lot more destructive, and misanthropy could be argued to include all -isms you could name, and then some. Here's a thought, misanthropy is always projected self-hate, delusions of grandeur are just inferiority complexes, and Linus could use a shrink. Who doesn't, right? So I'm not judging. But if you're for calling a spade a spade, let's call a spade a spade.
