Phil MThe #gnulinux naming “controversy”, might just be a cautionary tale against pushing an ideology about scattering one’s creations to the wind, only to spend decades arguing about a “naming controversy” that no one else but oneself considers a controversy. If it’s about freedom, then people can call it anything they want. I call mine, Larry.
Trolli Schmittlauch 🦥@khaos @rugk @Aarkon Wichtige Korrektur: FSFE, nicht FSF. Letztere wäre für mich nämlich aktuell auch eher ein Hinderungsgrund.

Hannah Sprinz 🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈We long passed the beginning of the end of the FSF's position at the forefront of the #FOSS movement, but this is the final nail in the coffin. They would rather sink into insignificance than give up one guy who spent decades abusing women. #Uninstallman
Michael Downey 🧢#RMS no longer on the #gcc Steering Committee:
Wm Salt HaleI understand that take @twotwenty However, I can confirm quite a few instances of harassment, a number as a first hand witness. Additionally, I do agree with the open letter's goal, the specific language and framing are where I struggle. The free software movement is too important to split in twain over this, but I'm definitely not seeing an easy path forward for the @fsf given the way that this has all taken place... #bigandlittleFfree #bekindinkind #FLOSSdaily #spreadloveandlibre #uninstallman
Hank GSince there is now a pissing contest for letters for & against RMS staying at FSF I've changed my mind and added my name to the one asking for his removal. To the RMS fanboys making hay of the removal letter being hosted at GitHub, both are. #uninstallman

For the past 36 hours, I have been getting death threats from cult supporters of Honorary "Doctor" Richard #Stallman, for demanding accountability after his decades of abusive behavior.
And I'm far from alone.
The @fsf is not only irrelevant to #FreeSoftware in the 21st century, it must be shut down. #RMS #uninStallman #FLOSS #FOSS
Even if you think that #RMS might have changed to the better, the whole way how he got into FSF board again is outrageous alone. From all the events in 2019 they knew bringing him back would be a wrecking bombshell.
Doing this secretive without any discourse is why the whole board needs to step down. They were not interested in reconciliation and putting the community back together.
JordiGHOmg, #uninstallman, alright, who came up with that?
anarcatsome seem to think the open letter about removing #rms is about destroying the #FSF. it is not. it is the first, and necessary, step in healing an organization back into relevance. #uninstallman
