From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I love Linux just like the next guy and have had several installations of NixOS to toy around.

I confess I was taken by suprise to stumble across the linked article and am not sure what to make of it.

Was someone more closely involved and can shed some light into this? Because, to be honest, I don't feel very informed on that matter and what to make of it...

This read and feels like right wing propaganda, describing antifa as a violent terrorist group who claims responsibility for riots is almost funny.

A cursory search only brought up this same article copy-pasted to 4 different websites starting in June, and zero other mentions anywhere else of topic outside links to those 4 articles.
