Shortening the rope

(I was particularly amused by the claim from the same guy that the X
developers were all Emacs users, even those who'd said 'btw, I use vim',
because they had *not explicitly disclaimed using Emacs*. So therefore
they were members of a *secret community* of *closeted Emacs users* who
were holding *secret votes* to disenfranchise the enormous community of
people who use VMs which run X and have to have X regularly force-killed
via menus that programmatically hit C-A-BS in the VM and can't be manually
configured and aren't kickstarted and can't have packages installed on
them.

It is obvious to any idiot that this latter community is *much much*
larger than the community of Emacs and bash and GNOME users.)
