Because it's very similar to you going to a Target to buy a vacuum
cleaner, and the salesperson tries to sell you a used pickup truck.

You didn't go there to buy an old beat-up pickup truck, and I
guarantee you would be unhappy that some idiot decided you didn't need
what you came there for, but instead needed something else, that
he/she decided is verrrrrry important.

Many of us subscribed to this list because it is advertised as a LINUX
USERS GROUP.

It is not advertised as a POLITICAL SOUNDING BOARD.

There has been a severe drought of linux-related info on here lately, and an
overabundance of tin-foil hat theories.
