26 Just to be clear, I did prefixed the subject with "[OT]", and in the
27 first paragraph I clearly stated that this as highly off-topic, and
28 systemd related.
29
30 You could have easily ignored the post, but your bigotry against
31 systemd made you post your laughable "arguments". It was *you* who got
32 into an explicitly marked off-topic thread.

38 If you marked it off-topic and was slightly related to systemd (like
39 "what distro X or app Y works better with systemd"), I don't think
40 nobody would mind. It probably would be mostly ignored, though.
41
42 And as Mark has already stated, systemd is part of Gentoo (now for
43 several years). Any post related to systemd is slightly related to
44 Gentoo, or at least to the many users using it (this is gentoo-user,
45 remember?)
46
47 I understand that, like a five year old that doesn't want to hear
48 about something, you would prefer that nobody *ever* posted anything
49 positive about systemd, or GNOME, or PulseAudio, or... man, your
50 bigotry is *HUGE*, it even sounds tiring. Anyway; it's not going to
51 happen: we will continue to post systemd-related topics in gentoo-user
52 if we consider them interesting to at least part of the Gentoo
53 community (which several members, including developers, already said
54 they did).
55
56 So I suggest you to do exactly like a five year old, cover your ears
57 and sing LA-LA-LA, because we are here to stay.
58
59 Regards.
