Once again you seek to put me on the defensive. Not biting.

The point is a simple one: this forum is not generally about advocating 
Linux, even on the rare occasions where Linux or technology is the 
topic. It is far more about lying to promote Linux, which is not real 
advocacy. It is far more about insulting and attacking others, which is 
not real Linux advocacy. It is far more about attacking Windows and 
macOS, and those who use them, than it is about real Linux advocacy.

The topic is Linux advocacy... and you work to twist it to be about me. 
For you everything is about me... your obsession with me is showing again.

-- 
Personal attacks from those who troll show their own insecurity. They 
cannot use reason to show the message to be wrong so they try to feel 
somehow superior by attacking the messenger.

They cling to their attacks and ignore the message time and time again.
