Fuck Stallman

This must be a conundrum for Richard M. Stallman. On one side he's a CSAM advocate (and an Epstein apologist), but on the other hand he's anti AI.

For a convenient summary of things Stallman has read or said, check out the Stallman Report! Turns out, Stallman has a lot to say, especially about Child Sex Abuse Material (CSAM), which he has spoken in support of 55 times.

hits "Don't show again" so hard and fast that my computer explodes in a shower of sparks and shredded metal

Reddit comment by hello_you_all_: "I use Linux as my operating system," I state proudly to the unkempt, bearded man. He swivels around in his desk chair with a devilish gleam in his eyes, ready to mansplain with extreme precision. "Actually", he says with a grin, "Linux is just the kernel. You use GNU+Linux!' I don't miss a beat and reply with a smirk, "I use Alpine, a distro that doesn't include the GNU Coreutils, or any other GNU code. It's Linux, but it's not GNU+Linux." The smile quickly drops from the man's face. His body begins convulsing and he foams at the mouth and drops to the floor with a sickly thud. As he writhes around he screams "IT WAS COMPILED WITH GCC! THAT MEANS IT'S STILL GNU!" Coolly, I reply "If windows were compiled with GCC, would that make it GNU?" I interrupt his response with "-and work is being made on the kernel to make it more compiler-agnostic. Even if you were correct, you won't be for long." With a sickly wheeze, the last of the man's life is ejected from his body. He lies on the floor, cold and limp. I've womansplained him to death.

Make Richard Stallman super sad:

Pulled from stallman-report.org/on-sexual-as...

A quotation of an email Richard Stallman sent to the MIT CSAIL mailing list in September 2019 that reads " The injustice [done to Minsky] is in the word “assaulting”. The term “sexual assault” is so vague and slippery that it facilitates accusation inflation: taking claims that someone did X and leading people to think of it as Y, which is much worse than X. (…) The word “assaulting” presumes that he applied force or violence, in some unspecified way, but the article itself says no such thing. Only that they had sex. We can imagine many scenarios, but the most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing. Assuming she was being coerced by Epstein, he would have had every reason to tell her to conceal that from most of his associates. I’ve concluded from various examples of accusation inflation that it is absolutely wrong to use the term “sexual assault” in an accusation."

For anyone who wants the specific receipts:

Fuck Richard Stallman

A substantial portion of the report is messages posted by Stallman which you can directly verify. The author's preference for anonymity is not relevant.

Fair enough. Lots of things to do and never enough time. Just remember, legitimizing child sex abuse apologists is always bad. Have a nice day!

I see a positive post about Stallman, I reply with the Stallman Report. It's simple ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Someone's done us all the favor of writing up a lot of shitty stuff he's done and said. We don't even have to speculate. Give a read sometimes. You don't have to get far to get the idea...

Well, he was removed from the FSF board for being an awful person and then reinstated cause they have no spine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Richard Stallman has been a known piece of shit for like 35 years

like, I'm glad people are finally doing something about it, but he's always been a scumbag and it's an indictment of the FSF that he's not been called to account before now

should also do something about ESR and Linus Torvalds too

If Richard Stallman wasn't a child sex abuse apologist, the free software movement would be doing better too...

You never have to hand it to Richard Stallman under any circumstance.

nope, he resigned from the Free Software Foundation board but returned later.

VICTORY! After over a decade, a federal court has declared that warrantless backdoor searches of US person’s communications collected under Section 702 of FISA is unconstitutional.

The Free Software Foundation Europe (its own independent organization) called for Stallman's resignation and declared itself "unable to collaborate both with the FSF and any other organisation in which Richard Stallman has a leading position".

Do you hate Richard Stallman? Do you think the Free Software Foundation has failed us by continuing to support him and retain him on their board?

Consider supporting other foundations that don't suck that much!!

The fact that Richard Stillman is still a voting member and board member 3 months after the publication of the report and years after the initial public outcry that originally lead to his resignation is a clear indictment of the Free Software Foundation.

An html table from the https://stallman-report.org with a break down of Richard Stallman's comments into categories of interest to the report. Stallman has made 124 comments from 2003 to 2024 in the category "Distinction between "children". Stallman has made 55 comments from 2003 to 2019 in the category "Support of child sexual abuse material" where all have been retracted. Stallman has made 37 comments from 2006 to 2023 in the category "Defense of sexual misconduct" where all but one have been retracted. Stallman has made 34 comments from 2006 to 2019 in the category "Support of sex between adults and minors" with all but 5 retracted. Stallman has made 24 comments from 2015 to 2024 in the category "Misrepresentation of sexual assault" with all but one retracted. Stallman has made 13 comments from 2014 to 2018 in the category "Misrepresentation of sexual harassment" with all retracted. Stallman has made 12 comments from 2003 to 2018 in the category "Support of bestiality" with all retracted. Stallman has made 3 comments from 2003 to 2013 in the category "Support of necrophilia" with all retracted.

With the documentation of the Stallman Report, we know that his "wisdom" includes 55 statements in support of child sexual abuse material, 37 in defense of sexual misconduct, and many other concerning positions.

Regardless of retraction, this is unacceptable.

This decision was condemned by many including the Electronic Frontier Foundation in their statement calling for the FSF to hold a special meeting reconsidering their decision.

Despite the international outcry that caused Richard Stallman's resignation from the Free Software Foundation boardin 2019, its voting members (including himself) chose to re-elect him to the board again in 2021 and he has remained a board member since.

The Fuck Stallman Foundation is not affiliated with the stallman report and had no part in writing it.

We are an independent group aiming to draw more attention to the report, Stallman's conduct, and the Free Software Foundation's complicity in enabling Stallman.
