Summary: George Carlin (1937-2008) said some wise things about how people are led to believe they have freedom because they're given a few choices and how their rights can be taken away or denied at any time
THE stand-up comedian and popular critic of society came from a family cynical about the state of the country (and its society); he repeatedly spoke about how "choice" (like Apple or Microsoft) is used to distract from actual freedom (not just a freedom to make binary choices). Here is what he said about "rights" (similarly animated) in his later days.
George Carlin is an excellent commentator, putting comedy/humour aside. Like a sit-com artist, he takes actual (real) issues and turns them into catchy skits. In some sense, he was ahead of his time. ⬆
If IBM cared about quality rather than alleged "cost savings" (cutting corners), it would assign more IBM staff to Fedora, but instead the exact opposite happened, with the likes of Cotton and Miller removed from the project
