Phoronix: RMS: No Radical Changes In GNU Project

With Stallman sticking around as head of the GNU and with that the Free Software Foundation re-evaluating their GNU relationship, Richard Stallman is already saying there will be no major changes to the project he founded...

This is while I call for those individuals to stop using GNU software if Stallman is such a moral danger for them.

Or even better, I call those individuals to f*ck *ff

Tired of the f*ck*ng useless sac of meat virtue signalers.

At this point who is still calling for this? Have they been living under a rock since the initial misinformation campaign against RMS? It's been debunked for weeks...

He does raise a good point about not being around forever. When the time comes, I bet Microsoft would love to stick a useless shill right in the middle to bugger things up XD

Facts simply don't matter to some, and I assume they just got paid to attack him, or are useful idiots helping for free, thinking they're good people.

I expected the drama to die down after a couple of days, since this is nothing new, and rms got himself in similar trouble many times before.

I'm still calling for this, its myopic to think this is about a single event. His personality, beliefs, and leadership style can't be "debunked".

I totally agree. Stallman was a good person and I don't think that those individuals should have the power to make him step down.

Almost everyone of them already knew from the start it was fake news. Don't get me wrong: there is no conspiracy here, just bad people doing bad deeds.

Let us know when you stop using GCC, all free software distros and desktops and nearly all free software packages, and the internet, because you are outraged at the fact that he either personally wrote the original technology or licenses or that his work was part of the foundation on which those technologies sit. Since you are so disgusted by his existence, you really have no alternative.

I personally think Stallman is an absolute dumpster fire of a person and his philosophies are utterly asinine vs those behind permissive licensing. I am firmly in the Open Source rather than Free Software camp, but even I think this is bullshit. If people want to break away from the GNU project that's their prerogative, but I would prefer the toe fungus eater to have stayed in charge of the FSF and GNU. They were ultimately at the end of the day his projects for better or worse and pushing him out is nothing more than a hostile takeover of his organizations.
