Sounds like a threat

I prefer the French Left take on the idea. They did a campaign awhile back titled: "The fascists are voting, are you?" With a big portrait of the most well-known far right politician in the country. In the end they had to pay a 3000€ fine but I'd say it was worth it.

"So mom, let me explain to you the difference between gender and sexual orientation." I had this talk in a bar a long time ago and boy, a lot of people need this explained!

Office workers - Has anyone here convinced their boss to let them install a Linux distro on their work desktop?
