From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

And I think these parts are fair to say but they lose me within the first few minutes by jumping to disassociated bold points like the cloud to windows being proprietary.
We need well reasoned arguments that are cohesive and the moment you lose that, you basically damage your own cause.
Again though it's a discussion. I'm just saying that it's disappointing and quickly frustrating that this is how things get framed: with facts and arguments that are leading. Don't show your hand. Let people arrive at these things as a logical conclusion based on a pile of evidence.
