We choose not to *market* Pharo as a Smalltalk, because each time someone outside our small world hear about Smalltalk believes that is a long time dead language
Then it�s a failed decision as Reddit reactions proves.
What�s better?
We have past issues we prefer not talk about, and our desire to not talk about is so bad that we did a site with that in mind because we are willing to pretend we�re something else so you dear jerk (that aren�t willing to use/try smalltalk anyway) might stop bullying us by telling us we�re dead. Oh wait! it works! a bully has a conversion click! Okay, download, click image. Open, oops Smalltalk everywhere. Now you�re dead and your marketing tried to fool jerks. What are you now famous for?
Confronting a jerk that says "you�re dead� every time by telling them Dead? hey.. see that product/startup over there? yah.. Smalltalk. And proudly preserve the integrity of Smalltalk�s design principles as always and more?
