It's time for a round of "Lunduke says obvious things about himself because a few people like to make up things about him."

Lunduke is a proud Jewish man.
Lunduke believes in freedom. Free speech and Free Software are my jam.
Lunduke believes in and lives by the ideals of Bill & Ted: Be excellent to each other.
Lunduke has been fighting for basic civil rights for ALL (incl. same sex marriage) since he became a grown-up in the 90s.
Lunduke does not like masked, hooded mobs that beat people up.
Lunduke feels like this should not be a controversial opinion.
Older computers make Lunduke smile.

Lunduke thinks we should all feel comfortable speaking openly about who we are and what we believe -- without fear of being attacked.
Lunduke doesn't care who you are...
where you're from...
what you did...
as long as you love Lunduke.
Lunduke believes that real men do their best to not swear around women or children.
Lunduke believes that real men do not hit women or children. Ever. Under any circumstances.
Lunduke recognizes that some will take issue with that stance — Lunduke thinks that is weird.
@lunduke WE LOVE LUNDUKE.
Oh shit, wait... that was MARMADUKE. WE LOVE MARMADUKE.
@lunduke No, seriously. I'm a fan.
@lunduke Hi ! Feeling a bit lonely here ! 😂 Remind me so much of the early internet love it
@lunduke I like Lunduke, and one of the reasons I do is that you REALLY remind me of David Tennant (British actor from Doctor Who mainly)
@naebulys I accept! (And I like you too!)
@lunduke I really wish that we lived in a world where a person could have an opinion and not get removed from their job/college/school. I also wish that people could voice their opinion with out worrying about getting beaten up. I know I am going to get a lot of flak for this post but that is okay.
@lunduke btw not trying to be political... sorry if that post I just made had anything relating to politics, it is sort of hard to tell these days.
@stormchaser3000 You and me? We agree.
@lunduke Speaking of older computers, we pulled my dad's Osbourne I out to show my son's what portable computing used to look like. I actually managed to remember a few CP/M commands.
@lunduke
Unfortunately these days you need to deal with the politics or the politics deals with you.
dreggon agrees with @lunduke that this is a good song, but thinks that it is sad that people need to be told the other things.
dreggon has decided he dislikes his own toot's. They smell bad.
But that is dreggons own personal opinions.
@lunduke why are you using a 3rd person perspective?
@lunduke
Gosh darn it Lunduke!
@jlcrawf Gol-dernit!
@lunduke
One day I was in my parents farm with my young nephew helping to get up a bunch of cows. We had them all up except a couple, but as we got them headed the right direction, we saw the entire herd getting out again. I yelled, "Dadgumit" and my nephew looked at me and repeated "Dadgumit!"
I looked at him and said, You know, it's a good thing that I don't cuss.
He said, "yeah."
@jlcrawf Wouldn't that make "Dadgumit" a cuss? I mean what is the boundaries? I always considered a "cuss" a word used as or to evoke an emotional response instead of a rational. I worked with a lot of russians and they swore a lot, but sometimes would replace with a "nicer" version. So sometimes my kids hear me yell "BLIN" when some one cuts me off in traffic.
@lunduke This is a no true Scotsman fallacy
@lukedashjr Shrug. A real man doesn't hit a lady or a kid.
You can call it a fallacy if you want to... but I hold that it's true.
If I hear of a man hitting a kid (or a lady)? I think less of him. As a man.
@lunduke Real Men don't fall victim to the false notion that some words are somehow "bad".
Real Men don't try to tell other people what words they can or cannot use in public.
Real Men recognize that if it's okay to say "poop", it's okay to say "crap" and "shit" because Real Men are not hypocrites.
YisraelDov believes that real men don't need to swear around any one.
YisraelDov Believes that a slap on the wrist does less damage to a child than a "Time Out".
YisraelDov thinks that @lunduke is weird. YisraelDov likes weird.
YisraelDov thinks that people who talk about them selves in the 3rd person are much weirder.
@lunduke Apart from the searing part I completely agree. Phonetics are they and my loving intelligent rebellious grandpa loved using them to poke prickly assed people, cause he was like a child testing the boundaries and then loving with a shit eating grin.
However I really appreciate your lack of swearing and other more family friendly behaviours.
Also I hope you come back to the fediverse it was a happier place with all your tooting.
@lunduke You're contradicting yourself
@lunduke Those people who "fear being attacked", what are they saying, exactly? That you think is so important to be told?
@lunduke All good. But smearing 20-year old privacy tech collectives for attention on youtube was a dick move that would make Bill and Ted sad.
I have often heard Lunduke say things that make me think he is a doofus. I have sometimes heard Lunduke say things that make me think he is an idiot.
I have never heard Lunduke say anything that makes me think he is a bigot, racist, classist, extremist, homophobe, misogynist, or other such "deplorable".
People can be dumb, offbase, mispoken, incorrect, or even a jackass - without being a "nazi". Let's not debase certain words to the point that they become meaningless.
@lunduke Good Bless Freedom of Speech and Expression.
@lunduke If even you are accused of being a nazi, then who isn't?
@lunduke I can agree with most of that and think you are a great person (even though we don't agree about everything). I've been enjoying watching your videos about #Linux and tech on #LBRY.
In these times, even Jewish and Hebrew people who have some common sense values and aren't perfectly Politically Correct are often labelled "nazi". Makes no sense, but it's what's going on right now.
Stay strong and do your thing!
@lunduke
Lunduke does not have a brother named David.
Protip don't write in first person.
Second don't feed the trolls aka these people who say you're a Nazi.
Another thing the guy who made sea monkeys was a Jewish white supremist. So just being Jewish doesn't cut it..
@lunduke YisraelDov would love to have a conversion about how/if Free Software Philosophy fits in with Yiddishkeit ( Jewish beliefs )
Lunduke likes you for who you are. Even if you don't like Lunduke.
Lunduke knows, apparently, how to write in the third person.
