Linux: It's complicated, ain't?

I agitate a lot for Linux Mint and LMDE. And again yesterday, a potential new Linux Mint user replied: Linux: It's very complicated, ain't? I replied: It don't have to be, but some helpers with the best intentions, thinks using e.g. Terminal is a a must or give them brain fire of to much information. I'm afraid they scare some new users away from a super great OS like, Linux Mint.

I have a weak spot for beginners and especially the ones, who actually are not interested in computers at all, but just want to use internet and an office suite.

Edit: I thought, the headline was correct. If my understanding of English is correct, I should have written it as :

"Linux: It's complicated, isn't it?"

Sorry for the inconvenience.
