      Steve actually said in the first video that they didn’t respond at all to the labs’ employee comment.

        It was one of the first things shown in the video. I didn’t even know about the comment until watching the GN video.

          Context seemed to be “this is what we let slide before, but the gloves are off after this new comment” to demonstrate that they at least showed some restraint.

            And the new comment was by Linus himself. Kinda funny how one offhand comment can have such a large impact.

            Now I wonder if Linus will embrace the people who love to talk about how much they hate cancel culture. Is there a fascist Linus in this timeline?
