That is not something either you can prove. My previous email in answer to this was censored, and I do not know which Code of Conduct did I break. > Thousands of individual people, including many former employees and > free software collaborators, have called for him to step aside. No, that is not true. Thousands have signed the defaming letter, but they did not really "call for him to step aside" neither I believe they support the letter in full, because they simply cannot understand it. Those people are good people and support the motion of fair world. I consider only those who personally and reasonably express themselves to call RMS to step aside, others are lured into the fabricated propaganda. > It actually serves the opponents of free software quite well to have > someone who pushes people away and facilitates a hostile > environment, be in charge of the FSF. Quite opposite is true, RMS was never facilitating hostile environment. FSF is not public, but privately founded non-profit, founded by RMS, it is equal as his own, and legally he could, if he would want, keep it totally under his control, but he did not, it is gift to mankind. That you come here with this perversion of truth without any facts or evidences is disgrace. > Also, RMS is not the free software movement. RMS is the core and heart of the free software movement. > It's dangerous to conflate an individual with a movement. To say > that the "free software movement is being attacked" when what's > actually happening is that a bunch of individuals are calling for > one person to take responsibility for their behavior is a sloppy > generalization. This is just trolling. But censor will like your trolling, as that is why your message pass through. > It's disappointing that so many people have chosen to disbelieve > former FSF employees, hundreds of women who have encountered RMS at > conferences or MIT and many, many free software creators. The vast > majority of the people who signed the letter asking for RMS to step > down, care deeply about free software. I wish more of you would try > to consider that. I am also researcher Deb, and I say, if he did something illegal, let those people handle that with him. I have not found anything related to RMS that justifies that type of cyber-bullying online harassment public shaming. Buf if he did not do anything illegal, and somebody complains on his behavior, don't mix that with his capability to lead FSF or speak for free software, it is not related.
