What it means

A bearded man with long hair sits in front of a window beneath a mock-supernatural message about being visited by the “Bearded Gentoo Man of Freedom.” The joke parodies chain-posting memes while referencing free software, GNU/Linux, Gentoo, and opposition to NSA backdoors; people share it as an ironic reaction for open-source or privacy discussions.
