openSUSE

[Ryan Petris]

Just because it's not being shouted from the rooftops or someone on the inside admitting to what's going on, we all know what the truth is.

Just like how Facebook wasn't censoring conservatives during covid via "fact checkers"; oops, turns out those fact checkers were really just left-leaning opinion machines, as was recently admitted.

Lastly, if you're offended by Lunduke then just don't watch him. No one is forcing you to.
