To quote: (To the tune of 'O Christmas Tree') O BSD, O BSD! How rarely have I heard it! FreeBSD, NetBSD, No matter how you word it! It's only Linux all the time, Yes, even though you're in your prime. O BSD, O BSD! How rarely have I heard it! Not only would I not call that bashing, I'd call it advocacy. Not the most spectacular advocacy, granted, but certainly in favour. Oh, and he left out OpenBSD. Before you see something sinister in that, I'd guess that he didn't care too much, and it was difficult to fit in.
