> Richard M. Stallman, frequently known as RMS, has been a dangerous force in the free software community for a long time. He has shown himself to be misogynist, ableist, and transphobic, among other serious accusations of impropriety.
From what I can find, he is an autist that is not able to understand women (which we all knew) and so he did things that made women around him uncomfortable. There were also apparently comments surrounding Jeffrey Epstein that my reading was his position is "rape should have a legal definition that is independent of age or location so it is internally consistent", which got blasted as "supporting pedophilia. I can't find anything about it, but I'm guessing the ableist comments are probably something along the lines of "talk is cheap, show me the code" and if so, I heartily agree.

This is old, and tiresome, and has been proven to be slander from top to bottom.

Considering how Linus, RMS and even EsR got attacked I don't consider it to be a coincidence.

@mangeurdenuage I figured. It looks to me like a slander campaign, and I would not be surprised at all to find that the accusers have ties to proprietary software sellers that are looking to defang free software.

@teknomunk @mangeurdenuage i think this is spot on what is happening.
same methods are used for everyone who isn't on board with shit agendas. look at the scientists canceled for the wrong opinions about covid like vanden bossche and bhakdi.
peterson got removed from being a therapeut for wrongthink. i think he has some opinions which are stupid, _everyone_ has stupid opinions. canceling his permit to do his therapeutical work had one effect for sure, it fucked his patients who relied on him into every orifice they have.
the concern about the wellbeing of others is fake if it's used as reason to cancel someone. it's lies, every single time, to further some shitty agenda.
