Ubuntu (from the wikipedia site):
There are many different (and not always compatible) definitions of what Ubuntu is.[7] Even with the various definitions, Ubuntu encompasses the interdependence of humans on another and the acknowledgment of one's responsibility to their fellow humans and the world around them. It is a philosophy that supports [u]collectivism over individualism[\u].
So, the Ubuntu movement by Mandela is the basis of philosophy for ubuntu linux?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Experience_ubuntu.ogvIt seems Ubuntu is now "communism for linux".

A fake Steve Jobs copy. I had hopes for their updated "unity" but they just closed shop and abandoned it. I think they "shuttled" him away right after that, but I can't remember.

I did get to heckle him one time when he spoke at the Southern california linux expo. Good times.

There actually IS a correlation. Check out the wikipedia page.

I find it adequate for use as a web server and stuff like that. I ran into some weirdness trying to use it as a desktop; I forget what, it was a stressful time where I just needed to get up and running right away for work.

Are you looking for a good distribution t try that's not gayed up? It depends on your competancy and fondness for the command line, but I could reccomend one if you like. A step WAY above this ubuntu garbage is Linux Mint Debian Edition (one step bay, way less gay). Another example is MX Linux, which I often help friends install because it works on low end machines and has very little gayness (even though it is based on Debian).
Anyway, for me I'm enjoying scanning code before compiling my own stuff. I've got enough going on with the HW backdoors and faggotry.

Now? That's always been the case. It became popular for being easy to use at a time when linux was not easy to use.

I did not explain it well, but what I meant was that "ubuntu" used to mean some philosophy but has now become pervasive as the word to describe a linux distribution. For sure the linux distribution was "marxism for linux" from it's exception as you state.
It really was. I switched back before they did their whole "unity desktop" from gentoo because my friends didn't like to compile stuff. I must say, it really dulled up my senses on linux until finally breaking away in 2016 or so (their switch to gnome3 over unity just broke the UI experience they had going). This was after that whole telemetry fiasco they had (which I turned off immediately and didn't think too much about at the time).
It did take me a long time to see the subversion going on. Now, it's totally obvious.
