      Wow. Some GNU maintainers are showing up on HN to denounce Stallman's tone and message for GNU's answer to the CoC debacle. I had heard the Octave folks were good eggs, but it's cool to see it in action here publicly. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18275156 …

      I'm really concerned by the condemnation being directed towards Stallman here, he is a very thoughtful guy, and while he might be wrong, I don't see anybody on twitter giving him the benefit of the doubt or trying to discuss his point of view with any charity

      I think people are being very charitable.

      By saying it's a mistake and not a deliberately counterproductive action.

      I mean, are those really the only options? I don't think Stallman would even like to know someone's gender or race when evaluating code, isn't it a distraction?

      He felt comfortable enough making gendered jokes. No fair then going, "But actually I don't focus on gender."

      It is effectively a pro-choice joke right? Doesn't seem indicative of bigotry (except perhaps towards pro-life people)

      Why not a circumcision joke then?

          I don't necessarily think humor can be used as a litmus test for bigotry in either case, do you?

          Before we go on, what does this have to do with anything other than you running around standing for Stallman? We started this with you saying it's unfair to him to not accept his approach as the right one. Wrong think, I guess?

          I am genuinely interested in hearing from those I do not understand. You have been very kind to me in this discussion and I thank you deeply for that. I am not a Stallman apologist, but I don't understand why there is so much anger at him, or Sqlite.

          Not angry, just disappointed.

          I didn't mean anger from you. You have been very reasonable. I am going to have to sign off for now, thanks again for the chat.
