    What kind of Linux distro has ASCII art on the desktop by default? you’re making stuff up

    Analogies are made to be made up

        The things we are comparing are a math book with a 1+1=3 on its cover and an article with a thumbnail of a linux desktop with ascii art on the background. If we ditch the default talk, then I can also just plaster a 1+1=3 on my math book and it won’t be misinformation

          So you think mentioning both ascii art and a linux distro somehow counts as misinformation?

            Well, its at the same level as 1+1=3 and a math book. It’s not claimed to be truth, but it uses a very inappropriate pop-appropriation to try and grab your attention

              using = literally indicates a claim, showing some art does not, you just assume shit and claim it as reality. I guess u also believe showing kali logo while not explicitly mentioning it in the article counts as " a very inappropriate pop-appropriation "? Get a grip
