It's up to you, folks - you're the board of the @fsf. You can keep Stallman and alienate everyone else, or you can do your job.

Dear dudes in my mentions, “Well in MY country it’s perfectly legal for a 45-year-old man to bang a 16-year-old girl” ...not the strong defense you think it is.

Dear
@fsf board members, If you cannot remove Stallman from your board, your only remaining option with any moral integrity is to resign. We’re all waiting. We see you. And we’ll see what happens.@bkuhn_ebb_org@mindspillage@makoshark@gknauth@HenryPoole#cancelstallman11 replies 111 retweets 489 likesShow this thread -

Sarah MeiVerified account @sarahmeiRichard Stallman is the reason I didn’t start contributing to open source (then called “free software”) in the 90s. I’m not the only one. He and his followers pushed out a whole generation of female developers, just at that critical time when open source adoption was widening. https://twitter.com/alicegoldfuss/status/993677847280562178 …Show this thread3 replies 22 retweets 237 likesShow this thread -

Once more for the folks in the back: “FREE AND OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE IS NOT WORTH MORE THAN ACTUAL WOMEN AND GIRLS”https://twitter.com/mandylibrary/status/1172308206917308419 …

For the record: I give zero fucks about Stallman’s gross personal habits. I save all my fucks for the way he systematically and consistently acts to push women, girls, disabled people, and other folks from marginalized groups OUT of software.

Sarah MeiVerified account @sarahmeiOh for fucks sake. The Free Software Foundation was founded by a child porn/rape apologist, who continues to be on the board, and you seriously think this question even needs asking? Let me clue you in: NO. https://twitter.com/wwahammy/status/1073619366057512960 …Show this thread4 replies 17 retweets 171 likesShow this thread -
We shouldn’t
#cancelstallman because his ideas are abhorrent. We should do it because he has acted in abhorrent ways, deliberately & consistently, over 30 years, despite repeated feedback, & because in so doing he’s pushed countless women, girls, & others out of software.8 replies 160 retweets 669 likesShow this thread -
