Report About Richard Stallman's sexual misconduct and support for pedophilia, bestiality, and necrophilia.
"Richard Stallman has also embarked upon a decades-long political project to normalize sexual violence. Under his ideological leadership, the free software movement is unsafe, particularly for women...There is a pervasive culture of sexism and a stark lack of accountability in free software, and it begins with Stallman’s unchallenged and reprehensible behavior."
Stallman is the worst thing that ever happened to open source software.
Not only is he a hack and a perv, he's a grifter. The FSF would be more honestly named "The Society for the Protection and Preservation of Richard Stallman".
I get to take credit for Stallman's being banned from speaking at any Gnome-Foundation-sponsored events after he referred to "EMACS virgins" in his keynote at the Gran Canaria Desktop Summit, defining "any WOMAN who has never used EMACS" and counseling the (95% male) audience that they had a "responsibility" to "relieve" such people of their "virginity".
Stallman attempts to whitewash the whole thing, more than a decade later, while never mentioning that he's persona non grata as far as Gnome is concerned.
Yeah. Ew.
Seeing the things he's said, I realize that a lot of the gross tech dudes I've heard spouting similar bullshit in the name of some kind of sexual freedom were just parroting their leader. Not a surprise that they were unoriginal, but I've been enough removed that I didn't know it was Stallman.
STALLMAN ALL ALONG!
@tyghebright I just....I can't even with words after reading this. Never heard of him before, and now I know too much.
@tyghebright omg, and the guy so often went with that holier-than-thou attitude towards everyone and even bragged about it, really, omg
