“I think it is morally absurd to define “rape” in a way that depends on minor details such as which country it was in or whether the victim was 18 years old or 17.” If an employee at a major company sent out the previous sentence in a "company-all" email would he still be employed, after having been given a "talking to" regarding comments he made about pedophilia several years earlier? If nerds, geeks, and dorks think that the following series of events is evidence of a "mob mentality", they need to retreat from public discourse: 1. A student posts a link promoting an upcoming event protesting the way that donations from Epstein were covered up by MIT administrators and calling for their resignation. 2. Richard Stallman chimes in defending Minsky. Saying, among other things, that rape and sexual assault require force (they don't). 3. Several commenters take offense to that. 4. Instead of shutting up, Stallman DOUBLES DOWN. 5. Commenters rightly point out that discussing matters like this in a public forum is unprofessional and may tarnish the reputation of CSAIL. 6. Stallman resigns when people start looking into the matter and find all of the pedophile stuff on his website.
