Why has Richard Stallman remained the @fsf president for over 20 years? @ThatAndromeda says a president should step down when they no longer represent the community. I guess the FSF feels Stallman's statements about rape & abuse do represent them.https://twitter.com/ThatAndromeda/status/1173584637911797761?s=19 …

I can't get @sarahmei 's call to the @fsf board to evict RMS as executive director out of my head. I have ~a decade of experience on national & international nonprofit boards, including 2 ED transitions, and here's the deal: no one has an inalienable right to be an ED. 1/

Richard Stallman resigned as both President and Board chair of the FSF. Now the real work begins to undo decades of damage he's done to the free software community, and especially people in marginalized groups in free software. I wish the @fsf staff luck.https://twitter.com/fsf/status/1173780935910797312?s=19 …

Richard Stallman has resigned, but sympathetic FSF board members remain. Alexandre Oliva, who took over as FSF president, says RMS didn't deserve to be removed. He centers RMS' pain (his dear friend) over the pain of victims of sexual harassment of RMS.https://twitter.com/sarahmei/status/1174371580547223553?s=19 …

Sage Sharp added,

A screenshot of Olive's comment, which says: "my deepest gratitude to RMS for everything he's done for the FSF, for Free Software, and for my own freedom. whatever else he may have said or done, he didn't deserve to have everything he built in his life taken away from him. so much for solidarity"

A screenshot of another of Olive's comments, which says: "I wonder how long will it take for the free software supporters (there are some!) who've just destroyed RMS's life to realize what they've just done and experience in regret and remorse one thousandth the pain they've just inflicted on my dear friend"

A second FSF board member called the stories of RMS' sexual harassment "high school gossip" and "slanderous accusations". Geoff Knauth's admiration of RMS meant he could not believe people who experienced sexual harassment from Richard Stallman.https://twitter.com/sarahmei/status/1174394691384561664?s=19 …

Let me add here some comments from current @fsf board member @gknauth about my original thread from last week, listing 30 years of Stallman-related incidents. First, he calls my previous threads "slanderous accusations" (despite the IN-THREAD receipts). pic.twitter.com/oyXp1FaHZ7

Richard Stallman's removal leaves a power vacuum to be filled. Can the FSF hire a president who can refocus the free software movement to be more inclusive towards marginalized groups? Please continue that pressure.

This is really important. Stallman is gone, but the house he built remains. The @fsf board is still stacked with his supporters. As we look towards what the future of free software COULD be, we need to dismantle that twisted structure and rebuild something better. https://twitter.com/cra/status/1174327879955562501 …

@sarahmei Why is it so important to destroy stallman and the FSF to rebuild with your ideals? Why not build a better alternative in parallel - "Fork" the FSF, if you will? Create a more inclusive alternative what can obsolete the model that you feel is so rotten.

It seems it'd be much more positive than focusing on calling out the transgressions of individuals, one after the other, dehumanizing and humiliating folks publicly.
