I'll give you six million reasons why I'm more pissed at his moves to hurt the one country I can go to if the nazis take over America. How would you feel about his moves against Israel if you were currently a Ukrainian Jew and needed a safe place for your wife and children? And by the way, as far as I know his "pedophilia thing" was saying the pedophile "wasn't all bad". And I'll say the same thing about RMS, he's not all bad. I'm eternally grateful to him for the GPL and the GNU utilities, and at the same time I think he has no right to expect help from Israelis, given the situation. And I think this is anything but offtopic given that somebody on an Israeli LUG list asked for help for a known Israel boycotter. https://www.reddit.com/r/Israel/comments/hmrre/richard_stallman_cancels_his_speeches_at_israeli/ By the way, Stallman says he's against BDS, but he's for some kind of boycott on things made in, as he phrases it, "Israel's colonies in Palestinian Territories". https://stallman.org/archives/2021-jul-oct.html SteveT Steve Litt Spring 2022 featured book: Making Mental Models: Advanced Edition http://www.troubleshooters.com/mmm _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
