what did ~~it~~ he say about women that makes him a misogynist?
Edit ok found this
https://www.arp242.net/rms.html
a pretty much reasonable, reasoned and merciless account on the figure of rms. I very largely agree with it - spoiler he isn't a misogynist, just a super massive weirdo
I once heard him described as "The smartest man to ever throw a tantrum like a 4 year old"
this thread is terrible... people reporting "I heard of"s as proofs. eh once I read, eeeh once someone told... once sjws bite, there's no chance they let go. and the most important thing is that 99.999999% of the people bad mouthing rms have at best fifth hand reports about him.
to all the superior etichs white knights: I'm not defending rms.
I'm very worried about the lynching, with proof based on I once read, i heard of, and also straight out of jealousy and envy.
rms, like suggested in the article I posted, could very well be a neuro divergent person. I wonder how many of all of these rabid dogs biting at him preach themselves as super supportive, super inclusive, 360° hexa-dimensional full rainbow, but then aren't able to understand the person they have in front of them. let's start by ruining someone. there's always time to say "I was wrong, I'd like to apologize. At the time I didn't know. I vow to be a better person."
Wrong person to post this in response to, dude
why, i thought you'd agree
Your comment came across as attacking me, and also as a little bit crazed. That said I completely agree with your last sentence, being able to admit you are wrong is a very important skill and one many people could do with learning (I try, I don;t always succeed but I try)
