You're confusing two different trans people. One was fired by the FSF, and another, Leah Rowe, claimed her friend's firing was an instance of transphobic discrimination and pulled Libreboot from GNU.
The person who got fired from GNU hasn't said a word on the subject, and there's no evidence of her being unstable and unprofessional. Leah Rowe, on the other hand, was indeed acting unstable and unprofessional. The really sad thing was that Rowe's flip-out actually outed her friend, who was stealth, so she wound up hurting a fellow trans person far more than the FSF allegedly did (and due to Rowe's instability, I have difficulty believing her version of why her friend was fired).
- fsf-fen-sucks 10y agoI find it difficult to believe people calling others toxic, or unstable. Sounds like just another FSF whack job trying to further smear a project they lost control over. Sounds like respectability politics, gas lighting, and making shit up about what happened to someone who "hasn't said a word on the subject".
