Nice to see more of this going on. And it's just bizarre that 4 days into this discussion, the board members are still saying nothing. #cancelstallmanhttps://twitter.com/CrankyLinuxUser/status/1173266001682735104 …

Well, except for @gknauth demanding others do his job for him, in addition to spouting legal terms like “slanderous” that he does not understand
Not a great sign.
William Pietri Retweeted Geoff Knauth
Damn, I didn't look at their replies, just their public-facing tweets. But his comments are surprisingly terrible. E.g., this one. I'm not sure what's worse: his ignorance about how little "authorities" do, or the notion that anything legal is ok by him:https://twitter.com/gknauth/status/1172303403021529088 …
William Pietri added,
An of course, it's absurd that @gknauth is telling somebody to report to "authorities" when he is in fact has authority over the FSF and his first reaction to a report is knee-jerk dismissal. I hope @mindspillage and @makoshark do better. 
It’s not a knee jerk dismissal. I just not a knee jerk acceptance of a tweet. How do you investigate a tweet? People use Twitter to say all kinds of bad things about people.
That was definitely a dismissal, but let that pass. Are you saying you still have no idea what current concerns people have about Stallman?
I’ll admit it was somewhat of a dismissal of *one person’s* tweets, my experience more than a year ago was that same person sent many tweets without being a witness. When people responded, I saw most of them attacked. So for me it was the messenger. But Selam G’s story moved me.
You should consider some therapy to get over that. It’s ... not a good look.
I see this as more of a call from the free software community to protect the FSF and GNU. This isn't the first time RMS has said/done something awful, and it won't be the last. Stop it now before it gets worse.
