Some of the most upsetting tweets I get to see are people who 100% gave up on Windows a decade ago because of Python. Much like 100% giving up on Linux because of AAA games. Don't judge a platform by the things that weren't designed for it.

I just went through my own PATH and the only things there are x-plat ports, system commands, and potential DLL hijacking issues. No Office, no video/audio editing tools, no games. Not sure what propaganda I'm meant to be pushing. The Windows design philosophy?
The propaganda you’re pushing is that Python has to be this way because Windows is not Linux and only Libux allows you to access software easily. This is not only false on its face, but also denies that OSX’s installer exists. There is a hidden agenda to why you do this.

It's not hidden. I want Python to work well for Windows users on Windows. I don't want Python being responsible for breaking other people's software. It's not an easy balance, especially given 99% of online posts ignore Windows (but Windows users still read them).

This is also a motte-and-bailey fallacy and propaganda tactic: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Motte_and_bailey … First you don't do this because "it's a Linux thing", then when I prove you wrong you retreat to "it will break 1% of software". Both statements from you also have zero evidence, just words.
