RMS is almost 70 years old. How do you expect him to keep up with millenial fragility and infinite ability to be offended? Even I have a hard time with this crap, it only takes a straw to be vilified. TOLERANCE demands no paradox, just a little fucking effort.

It’s not about millennials. He’s been an asshat since before millennials were conceived. Pay attention to what’s been reported; you might learn something. Unless that’s what you’re specifically trying to avoid?

Like I said, tolerance. It requires no equal ideas. And we need a truckload of asshats, specially nowadays. The ones we should be grateful for don’t give a fuck about flattery. GPL only requires you to pass it along.

Read the Paradox of Tolerance sometime; there’s a good summary on Wikipedia. If people had been so tolerant 80 years ago, we’d be having this convo in German.

I did. Stallman is on the extreme of tolerance. Between the two of you it's incredibly clear which is being intolerant. Or are you going to provide even one example?

As for examples, read
@sarahmei’s thread in response to the alumna’s Medium post. Literally dozens of examples.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

Who is that intolerant of? That opinion of his has literally nothing to do with tolerance.

Christine Corbett MoranVerified account @corbettMy first interaction with RMS was at a hacker con at 19. He asked my name, I gave it, whether I went to MIT (I had an MIT shirt on), and after confirmation I did, asked me on a date. I said no. That was our entire conversation. Christine, yes, no thanks. https://twitter.com/sarahmei/status/994010501460865025 …2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes
How his him asking someone on a date then accepting a "no", him being intolerant? What could be more the opposite of intolerance than a date? Do you think making negative inferences on my emotions is civility or decency on your part?
