Where is Oliva's 'solidarity' with CHILDREN who cannot consent to a sexual relationship with an adult? Where is his 'solidarity' with the adult survivors of that abuse, who had to read Stallman's defense of it REPEATEDLY over the course of DECADES?

Where is Oliva's 'solidarity' with disabled people, whom Stallman likened to 'pets,' and wrote on his blog that they should have been aborted?

Stallman deserves neither gratitude nor solidarity. His enablers, like Oliva, don't either. #cancelstallman

After the Jacob Applebaum incident in 2016, the board of directors for the Tor project ALL resigned. The structure they'd built & perpetuated was what allowed the problem to happen. Tor would never recover without a fresh start. The @fsf won't either.

Similarly: just firing Travis K. didn't magically make Uber more ethical or inclusive. Like the @fsf, Uber was built as a monoculture - a cult of personality - from the start.

Uber remains a deeply unethical and untrustworthy company _precisely because_ they lopped off the head without dismantling the structure it built.

If the remaining board members of @fsf truly care about advancing the cause of free software, they will resign. Let the organization rebuild. Gerald J. Sussman @gknauth @HenryPoole @makoshark @bkuhn_ebb_org @mindspillage Alexandre Oliva #cancelstallman
