Yes, it's entirely non sequitur.
Criticism of Novell has nothing to do with their contribution to Linux.
And this "demonisation" nonsense is laughable. It's not possible to
demonise a demon. Novell betrayed the GNU/Linux community, by signing a
pact with the Free Software equivalent of the Devil - Microsoft.
That's not demonisation, it's a simple statement of fact, and has zero
to do with contributions ... unless one is talking about their injection
of Microsoft toxin into the Free Software community. OK, I'll give "Zek"
that - let's criticise Novell for "contributing" Microsoft Poisonware.
What Microsoft Poisonware has Google "contributed"?
Oh and where does "freetards" come into the argument, I wonder? why
would we be "freetards" for criticising Novell, but Novell are not
"freetards" for developing Free Software?
What an odd contradiction.
You're right, "Zek's" bigotry is palpable. Or rather his /loyalty/ is.
