How can anyone defend this?

No it contains 1 application and a handful of plugins that you can choose to install or not.

What bothers me more is how typing "nigger" in org mode immediately highlights the word and offers to remove it.

damn, if this shit fails too I will try god-mode. If that shit fails too I will just stay evil. Fuck Emacs keybinds.

i'd like to see a more stripped down version, desu

Why do you have such an innate aversion to good keybindings that you feel the need to go to such retarded extents just to suffer?

because Emacs keybinds are everywhere in Emacs. I am learning to use elfeed, emms, org mode and dired. Having to learn an abstraction layer over Emacs stuff is just too much.
But I guess that if everything fails I will just use evil with leader keys for everything.

You do realize that using mod keys for commands and evil for text/movement isn't as strainful to your fingers as using emacs keybindings for editing text, right?
