"If someone bugs you it is not a crime" - it is very easy concept and we were taught it in kindergarten. It is almost like they don't teach it anymore.

#politics #freedom #freesoftware #FSF #RMS@[url=https://spinster.xyz/users/rcz]Radek Czajka[/url] Thanks for asking. Yes I spent plenty of time with RMS; he stayed in my NYC apartment twice while on speaking tours.He can, indeed, be "creepy." He commits no crimes, and backs off when told. He's presumably autistic. I understand why many women feel uncomfortable around him.
BUT THAT'S NOT A GODDAMN CRIME.
Richard doesn't understand many common social cues but as far as I can tell has ALWAYS respected stated boundaries.The whole point of Richard Stallman is he's weird, sometimes "creepy," disagreeable, socially challenged, Asperger's-y, and simultaneously brilliant and perfectly suited to what he does best. That was something that always inspired me about him. Talk about "able-ism" - Stallman himself is pretty severely "challenged" but nonetheless contributes to the benefit of all. His story showed me that you don't have to be nice, or likeable, or agreeable, or socially skilled, to make profound contributions.

•Still with these displacement attempts they try to accuse him of misdemeanors as the reason for his removal rather than coming up with better choice.
This is the way people deal with criminals - you did something really bad, you go away no matter what. In governance leadership change is natural but you don't just remove people, you let the best ones win and replace old leaders.
