are you fucking stupid? is everyone in debian fucking stupid? do you all have
to squabble over the tiniest most pedantically trivial things? for fuck's
sake, get a grip - argue all you like over REAL things, pick the shit out of
REAL holes in people's arguments, but don't fucking waste time over stupid
bullshit like this.
the point, for those of you to stupid to work it out for yourselves even after
being told TWICE what it is, is that it makes a very nice suggestion that it
would be good if people just shut the fuck up about this subject. that's it.
that's all. nothing else. no more can be read into it. and, surprisingly, it
will not be enforced by debian storm-troopers or black helicopters.
i really don't know how much simpler i can put it than that. if even that is
beyond you, then there is no point in trying again.

unfortunately, that isn't possible. the anti non-free bigots will take silence
as assent and push even harder for their obnoxious aims.

WTF are you talking about it?
are you sane? you seem to make a habit of going off on weird non-sequitir
tangents that appear to have no relationship to reality or to anything that has
gone before.
