Standard Linux mint is is Ubuntu based, LMDE is debian based. Completely different depending on the issues they had.
Edit: but also plenty of other Debian based distros, including Debian itself would avoid direct Ubuntu (Canonical) and Fedora (RedHat) influence.
There is a vast difference between a community driven project like Debian taking small contributions from people who happen to be in Israel/incorporating some things from RedHat after lots of vetting and diluting and Fedora being a direct upstream testing ground for RedHat who are the primary contributors and maintainers.
No, this type of approach will not lead to you throwing your PC in the trash, it will simply lead to you being more aware of your software and how it functions,what it contributes to, and what contributes to it. Which is a good thing imo.
For example, I use LMDE. Yes, there are most definitely contributions from redhat in my machine. the difference is between
RedHat engineers -> Fedora.
And
RedHat engineers -> Fedora -> Upstream Project acceptance-> Debian -> LMDE.
I'm not saying you need to stop using Fedora. But everyone draws a line somewhere and I'm simply making my knowledge on this known for people who's line may be in a similar place to mine.
Jewish is an Ethni-Religious term, if you are Jewish but don't follow Judaism, you are still ethnically Jewish.
The majority of Evangelical Christians are Zionists. So if you can't be a Christian and tied to Judaism, but many Christians support Zionism, this should signify to you that modern Zionism is not as closely tied to Judaism as you think. Don't just stick your head in the sand, think about it.
Jews opposing Zionism proves that Judaism doesn't equate to Zionism.
So simply, if Judaism ≠ Zionism (because many Jews disagree) and Zionism≠ Judaism (because many Christians are Zionist)
Then you should realize your whole anti-Semitic premise is wrong.
There are more Christian Zionists in the west than there are Jews in Israel. (25Million Evangelicals just in America and the broad majority claim to support Zionism vs less than 8million Jews in Israel)
Modern day Zionism is a settler colonial project. Israel is a product of settle colonialism.
You aren't spreading facts, you are repeating anti-Semitic, pro-zionist talking point.
Falsely equating Zionism and Judaism as a form of justification for their occupation of "the Jewish homeland" is a big focus on Zionism.
in reality modern day Zionism is propped up heavily by non-jewish support.
It's worth noting that fedora is heavily sponsored by RedHat (a subsidiary of IBM) and is the upstream testing ground for RHEL (Redhats commercial offering). RedHat also has close ties to Israels government and it's military.
This is a huge dealbreaker for someone like me so I feel it's necessary to mention.
Jokes on them, I just flat out lie in half my YouTube comments as I've assumed this sort of thing already existed.
I'm appealing to OPs authority and not including a Fallacy in this comment.

Oh shit...
Linux Mint Debian Edition.
You say not to suggest mint, but you most probably used an Ubuntu based Mint so that doesn't count.
Linux Mint Debian Edition.
Obviously you can't completely rid yourself of all RedHat influence but Fedora is their literal upstream community testing ground and LMDE really does limit their influence heavily and that of Canonical (Ubuntu) by just building off of the more community based Debian (which Ubuntu built off of as well)
From the article.
This gradual strategy bypasses traditional deterrents. Since the 1998 nuclear tests, both nations have relied on mutually assured destruction to prevent escalation. But water pressure sidesteps that logic. It destabilizes without triggering alarms. The floodgate becomes a weapon.
It is a form of statecraft that undermines without alerting, bleeds without blasting. Delhi no longer needs tanks or missiles to inflict damage. A dam valve will do.
Except, this doesn't sidestep the mutually assured destruction at all. The alarms on this issue were triggered long ago, as it's a predictable strategy.
Pakistan specifically does not have a "no first strike" doctrine instead opting for "full spectrum deterrence" with the aim of preventing a wider war all together with heavy implication from officials that attempts to control their water supply would be considered an act of war and fall in line of their "full spectrum deterrence" policy.
If India chooses to play the water game, it's no different than choosing to play any other game of "nuclear chicken", and India should know this.
We don't have a lack of housing. We have a distribution problem. We can't just build infinitely, we need to redistribute.
