I did, and that is true but not what I am talking about. The claim is about the victim's willingness, not who RMS defended.
Further do court documents and other testimony related to the Epstein investigation not agree with RMS's comments on Mr. Minsky? There is a statement that Minsky refused relations with the girl, perhaps due to realizing what was going on.
- ptah 7y agothis article is not about epstein of minsky at all but about a long history of creating a hostile environment for female computer scientists
- dvfjsdhgfv 7y agoYeah, in the heads of people who are reading it this way. RMS is completely different. He creates a strange place for anybody. He slept in my (male) friend's apartment and the guy was telling us strange stories for weeks. It has absolutely nothing to do with molesting women. It's like writing that Jon "maddog" Hall was molesting men. I can't believe what I'm reading.
- ptah 7y agominsky should have refused purely because of her age imo. his morality comes into question for me if he only refused because epstein coerced the girl
- jigglesniggle 7y agoIt seems like he refused because of her association to Epstein (or perhaps just not being interested), and knew she was probably underaged and coerced despite her own coerced statements. People are giving Mr. Minsky flak for not refusing the donation, but refusing before the wide publicity of the Epstein scandal probably would have landed him in hot water for some variation of "why did you not take the free money?" or "why are you accusing this upstanding donor of human trafficking and statutory rape?"
- ptah 7y agoyeah, i don't understand outrage over taking the money at all tbh. did he obtain the money donated from sex trafficking?
