People would read the second message, type the yes prompt, break their system. But still claim that it was linux’s fault, and that the OS doesn’t work.
Message two can also be caused by packages (or rather, package creators) with delusions of grandeur that only think that the system will stop working without them, so they rig things to threaten to uninstall the system.
Or else someone has created too heavy a dependency on something that ought to be removable, but isn’t thanks to malice or incompetence (or both).
We still mock Microsoft for putting too heavy a dependency (or at least removal FUD) on whatever web browser they bundle with their OSes (first IE, now Edge), and here we might have a package creator trying the same damn thing.
Honestly I once did this to my desktop environment because I saw a huge list of packages and ignored it because I thought they were packages that could be upgraded, not that it was going to uninstall my fucking desktop lol

With Emily as the main Host (Comment section goes BRRRRRRR! Don’t want to be a mod there xD)

For legal reasons I cannot confirm nor deny such allegations at this time.
They need to noobify that prompt further, something like “Yes, break my system!”. Even Linus wouldn’t fall for that (I hope)!
Or have them answer a few linux related questions
*They will claim it was Linus fault
Which one?
