      This is a really interesting jab - much more so than the boring “go back to the kitchen” bullshit I get so much of. It’s similar to a common tactic abusive partners use - “if you leave [because of my bad behavior], I’ll kill myself and that’ll be on you!”https://twitter.com/osakatadori/status/1178154735162912769 …

      You helped make him homeless. Own it. At least be proud of the outcome you seeked. When Stallman finally kills himself, it'll be on you. pic.twitter.com/AFWTfl4lnC

      i am unsure if people realise that rms lived in his office, and that his search for interim accomodation is likely because he has been asked to stop sleeping there that's still beside the point though, and wow there's some angry dudes who don't understand facism in your mentions

      On his website he claims he stopped using his office as his residence in 1998; is that not correct? https://stallman.org/rms-lifestyle.html …

      it's hard to speculate either way but the point I was making here that there have been points in the past where his primary accomodation was dependent on his role in mit, and there may be some case where that would continue to be true

      here's the thing you're missing "rms should not be in charge of the fsf and has shown himself to be hostile, a bad steward and an embarassment to the moment" isn't really much of a hard point to get and yet here we are asking about the technicalities of his accomodation requests

      years upon years. projects forking. people leaving the fsf, people resigning from the board. this isn't about the toenail eating. but yeah it might be that his accomodation was provided for by the fsf and his resignation requires moving elsewhere

      the idea that anyone other than him is responsible for his resignation and subsequent consequences is laughable, tenuous, a huge stretch well, for anyone who has been trying to hold him to account, for _years_ now

      honestly? that he got dumped out of second hand embarassment over mit's involvement with child trafficking, well, i guess so it goes people tried every single other way, including forking the fsf did you never ask why debian gnu/linux is under a different org?

      It's clear that rms's defenders at MIT not only protected him from answering for his own bad behaviour, but also provided him with unique privileges. I doubt it's normal to have a "visiting scientist" title for 20 years without producing any new research. How much was FSF vs MIT?

      I'm not sure where this detail comes into my point, I'm not writing a wiki article, I was saying that people are happily jumping to conclusions about his housing situation despite ignoring years of hostility. Yes, oddly enough MIT was responsible too.

      Just saying that the responsibility for the situation lies with: - RMS for doing shitty things for so long; and - FSF and MIT for enabling him to get away with doing shitty things for so long and *NOT* with anyone calling them out on it
