As far as I know, CSS means 'Cascading Style Sheets'. But this doesn't
make any sense in the given context. But I'd like to point out that
I didn't claim Tobias was wrong in the factual parts of his
statement. But the spin he put on them was basically "Systemd is good
for you and people who don't agree are lunatics". Without the spin is
statement doesn't look so nice anymore, but that's not my fault.

If you're confusing a factually correct explanation of statements
made on this list with "a conspiracy theory", as you apparently do, this
would be a problem on the receiving end.
