gross.
I agree. People don’t want to face the truth. For the decades that the “PCMR” meme has existed, it’s all been about supporting Microsoft.
Sure, recently, the steam deck and Valve let you go “but Linux!” But the PCMR term is tainted. Always has been. You can’t tell me it was about Mac OS, Linux and Windows.
And this is before we look at the history of “master races.” It’s all really fucked up.
Yeah, I’m pointing to the obliviousness of the whole thing. It’s really strange. It’s not like Microsoft just pulled off their mask with Windows 11.
It all started as a gag joke on a bit from ZeroPunctuation.
