It baffles me sometimes how people frame treating others with respect as "political correctness". Why is basic respect considered political?

Linus is a legend! That young man showed no respect when he suggested his own approach was better.
Stop teaching legends, learn from them.

respect is earned not given. Truer words were neve spoken. Also, do not confuse being civil with respect. Civility is given. Respect si ALWAYS earned

Yeah and then his daughter eventually got him to retreat from the public, delete many of his outward-facing blogs, and hang out in the shadows for years

I wish we had more of Torvalds' objectivity and less of the fragility that has become part of tech 🥰

People applauding WOKE don't understand Finnish humor. "It's hyperbole" is 100% bang on. My best professors made fun of us when we got things wrong... and it made learning highly motivational and relaxing. But Linus is 100% on the money with "you can pick who you get along with."

i think that respect is not a currency, it cannot be earned or axcumulated... you are born with it, more or less.

not sure how is politically correct to just not say someone should be killed because of their bad contribution to an open source project

Whatever you think, this response is better than 40 years of Steve Jobs.

Wow, did not realize that was him. Seems like you are seeing projection. Doesn’t matter how successful he is, the shame he carries can never be overcome. The lack of any accountability, just is an attempt maybe to hide it.

Linux isn't some basement, bootleg system it's designed, coded, and maintained largely by companies and commercial entities where you're expected to be kind, courteous, and professional. asking for basic decency and those kind of professional values isn't "politically correct" it's just correct.

It's ok to not respect someone as an equal, or as an engineer, you can make them earn that, but everyone should get basic level of human respect.

In my opinion, respect for you as an individual or person is a given, while respect from a professional perspective must be earned. I agree that he only wants to work with those he considers at his level, but from a human perspective, respect should be a given.

Linus has actually put in the work to earn respect. And as an adult, I agree. You can and should choose who you work with. People should have matching work ethics. I prefer his honest replies to anything because they enable progress and moving forward. He does not have to be nice, he was chosen to be a benevolent dictator for life for the kernel. Because he does good work.

Why did he create an open source OS for the people then? According to his logic, we don’t deserve any common decency

Oddly enough, saying that some other people don't have the same viewpoint and that's okay IS a form of respect. So he does have a baseline level of automatic respect for others, even if he himself can't recognize it.
