Politics

August 18th, 2009, by The Angry Drunk

It occurs to me that it’s been a while since I went on a polit­i­cal toot, and there may be new peo­ple here who thought that this point­less exer­cise in self-indulgence was all Apple, all the time.  Sorry, it ain’t. If that’s a prob­lem, I sug­gest unsubscribing.

    Give ‘em Hell! I get dis­gusted with most of the Mac-centric forums because there are so many right-wing ass­holes and gLib­er­tar­ian shitweasels post­ing on them. (And they sure as Hell don’t hide their pol­i­tics under a bushel!) I was shocked to dis­cover this. I hon­estly thought Mac usage and left-wing pol­i­tics were inseparable!

    Sadly, the days of the late-sipping, beret-wearing Mac user are long gone. With OS X we got the Unix crowd, and with them we got free­tards and lol­ber­tar­i­ans. It’s sad really.

    I’m still a left-of-center, latte-sipping Mac user, but I don’t own a beret. Two out of three ain’t bad?

    Sort of iron­i­cally, I came back to the Mac after a long absence because of the Unix under­pin­nings — although by way of FreeBSD, which in my expe­ri­ence has a markedly lower inci­dence of Stallman Syndrome than the Linux crowd does.
