Yeah, it's finally happening. If you don't know who RMS is, here's an excerpt from wikipedia.
RMS is a severely autistic man who vastly improved the world we live in. In fact I wrote this text inside GNU Emacs, on a GPL licensed OS, compiled with GCC, all his creations.
Here's an article on the incident.
Stallman is known for being particularly picky about word definitions. You can find many of such instances on his personal website. In this case, he talks on the definitions of sexual assault and rape, whilst defending his deceased colleague Marvin Minsky, accused of such in association with Jeffrey Epstein. In my opinion, he is absolutely correct on the broadness of the term "sexual assault" not being in helpful at all. It's being used without evidence that Minsky acted against the consent of any person. On his assessment of statutory rape, I think he's correct but very wrong in legalese, because some places are stupid enough to have an age of consent above 15 or so.
Stallman is a fan of Bernie Sanders, and deep into leftist/SJW narrative, as nearly 100% of his new attackers. But he prefers using his own very precise words, his projects use his own code of conduct (far better than the infamous contributor covenant), made a couple of jokes that weren't appretiated, and is a straight white male. That's enough for this to happen, apparently. Some people like this are pressuring FSF's director board for RMS's removal.
If he does get kicked and desecrated, at least we'll always be able to use his software, thanks to the freedom provided by licenses he created. As an asperger I used to get shunned in school, but this is way worse, it's hard to recover from. This world is harsh for those on the autism spectrum, and this anti white male crazyness make it much more unfair. I have to hide most of my ideas or surely something similar happens, this madness is hitting the third world even harder.
Richard Matthew Stallman (/ˈstɔːlmən/; born March 16, 1953), often known by his initials, rms,[1], and occasionally upper-case RMS, is an American free software movement activist and programmer. He campaigns for software to be distributed in a manner such that its users receive the freedoms to use, study, distribute, and modify that software. Software that ensures these freedoms is termed free software. Stallman launched the GNU Project, founded the Free Software Foundation, developed the GNU Compiler Collection and GNU Emacs, and wrote the GNU General Public License.
Stallman launched the GNU Project in September 1983 to create a Unix-like computer operating system composed entirely of free software.[2] With this, he also launched the free software movement. He has been the GNU project's lead architect and organizer, and developed a number of pieces of widely used GNU software including, among others, the GNU Compiler Collection,[3] GNU Debugger,[4] and GNU Emacs text editor.[5] In October 1985[6] he founded the Free Software Foundation.
Stallman pioneered the concept of copyleft, which uses the principles of copyright law to preserve the right to use, modify, and distribute free software, and is the main author of free software licenses which describe those terms, most notably the GNU General Public License (GPL), the most widely used free software license.[7]
