@fsf RMS fans don't seem to understand what free speech means. Free Speech means freedom from the GOVERNMENT infringing on your speech. What is happening to @fsf is the free-market doing what the free-market does. Freedom of Speech does not mean freedom from criticism. Do you know what free speech doesn't cover? Death threats.

@robbyoconnor @fsf It's a really bizarre like... double gaslighting or something? They attack strawmen while doing the exact thing they're saying the strawman does.

@TransGal4872 @be @fsf No, just explaining what free speech is since people don't understand it.

@TransGal4872 @be @fsf OHH yeah I deleted that -- I don't even think I want to characterize it. They simply don't understand that people can and are held accountable.

@robbyoconnor @be @fsf This whole thing is kinda ridiculous, I have no idea what's actually going on, but the result is that there's now 2 witchmobs going after eachother and I'm trying to steer clear of it

@TransGal4872 @robbyoconnor @fsf There's a large community of generally reasonable people on one side being harassed with death threats and endless trolling by another.

@be @TransGal4872 @fsf I wouldn't call that trolling, I would call it terroristic threats. Not covered by free speech either. THAT can land them in prison for a good while.

@robbyoconnor @be @fsf I think that dissolving the FSF is a step too far, but probably clear the board.

@robbyoconnor @be @fsf They hold the rights to GCC, X11, Emacs, and a few other things; without them, there is nobody to enforce the GPL on that software

@robbyoconnor @be @fsf forking as a first move instead of as a last resort is a terrible way to go, it detracts from the common and weakens the community as a whole.If the main problem with the FSF is the management, replace the management; don't nuke it to ease your egos

@robbyoconnor @TransGal4872 @fsf Google has been investing in getting Linux building with Clang.

@be @TransGal4872 @fsf I wish I could purge my system of GNU utils but sadly they're everywhere. GNU can exist outside of FSF.

@robbyoconnor @TransGal4872 @fsf I bet there are people working on a GNU-free Linux distro right now.

@robbyoconnor @TransGal4872 @fsf I wonder how hard it would be to build a Linux distro with Clang, use a different C library, and replace GNU utilities with BSD utilities.

@robbyoconnor @be @fsf I'm certainly not defending RMS, even if he's autistic, he seems to be choosing to be a creepy prick and he's got some issues with separation of office and person

@TransGal4872 @be @fsf I'm autistic too, I make mistakes sometimes...it sucks being corrected but I move on. Being autistic can only be used as an excuse for so long, beyond that, you're just a creep.
