I was expecting a terrible non-apology from Stallman, but this is even worse than I thought it would be. #cancelstallmanhttps://twitter.com/theamyshim/status/1172946689553887232 …

Politics quack. Jokes so niche they may not be funny. Tech stuff. Rails, TypeScript, React, etc. Lifting and foods. #SaveCounterpart

Sarah Mei added,
Sarah, Pause for a moment. Irrespective of Richards actions, what is the intent here? Replace Richards name with your own, or one of children's. How would feel as the receiver and observer of such emotional vitriolic language? What will you do when Twitter comes for you?
The problem with your framing is that you’re describing this reaction like some sort of random event. It’s not; it’s the result of decades of misconduct.
Rich, I do not feel it is a random event, and change I agree should be requested. My concern is with the language used. It I feel it detracts from the argument for change.
While there's value in tailor your message to the audience, the problem is that this isn't the first time that RMS has been asked to change. Or the second. He's been like this for decades, and people have been speaking up for decades. Moral outrage is absolutely fine here.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
