I did make the mistake of trying to convince people that learning Linux and using FOSS is the only way to keep some power as the people.

That created a clique of friends that are now telling me every single time they pay for a movie from amazon (calling it buying), that comment every problem I encounter with “That’s a Linux problem” and keep telling me they have “nothing to hide” (“nothing to hide” just means “nothing to protect”).

So yeah, I pissed them off by being too emotional in that topic, and now it’s a game for them. I will refrain from being seen as “too involved” because of that.
