It seems like an independent distro utilizing the apt package manager and porting some Ubuntu packages.

Yeah, probably it just uses the tools like apt that also ubuntu uses. Though there is a Linux Youtuber who said “since the word “ubuntu” appears in the grub config file then it’s not an independent distro”, and I don’t understand his logic, OpenSUSE uses rpms like Fedora but is considered independent. 🤔

Correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read that OpenKylin is Ubuntu based somehow.

You are not alone, I’m autistic too.

He was literally an Anti-Communist.

Von Neumann entered government service primarily because he felt that, if freedom and civilization were to survive, it would have to be because the United States would triumph over totalitarianism from Nazism, Fascism and Soviet Communism.[77] During a Senate committee hearing he described his political ideology as “violently anti-communist, and much more militaristic than the norm”. He was quoted in 1950 remarking, “If you say why not bomb [the Soviets] tomorrow, I say, why not today? If you say today at five o’clock, I say why not one o’clock?”[391][392]

Knowing how to solve problems doesn’t make you a genius in politics.

See Von Neumann for example, he was a genius in math (this means he was very good in problem solving) but a total idiot in politics.
