But you can read it on your local Debian install, or online here here or here.

I can tell it's really clever and witty, and I wish I understood this language! Is this a program we can run on BushSystem? Or is it one of those exclusively "Linux" type programs?

Ah, it's not that clever. Only the fact that there's an anarchism package available in the Debian Linux distribution.

Debian is a Free Software source with a full working constitution and democratic process, rather than the RedHat-style corporate business. I think Debian's pretty neat, and their political edge shows because of anarchism.
