What is the exact unacceptable behaviour that you linked to? (Sorry, navigating twitter sucks, I honestly am unsure what you're talking about). From the second link I get two things - second-hand tale that "he gets touchy" (hasn't ever happened to her directly I guess? Or we would've known). And first-hand tale that he abused organizers by instructing them how to make tea; she assumes it's because organizers are women, but from what I know RMS would abuse organizers regardless of gender. He was weird and hard to live with, much less please. Yes I can believe that (it's something that Miguel de Icaza apparently complains about). But this is not a crime!
- dependenttypes 7y agoThe tea case and the de Icaza case might not be crimes but they are still unacceptable behaviour imo.
- virgilp 7y agoYou don't have to like him to recognise injustice. People are literally celebrating a "long overdue" injustice because they don't like the man, so "he had it coming". I don't know how can anyone not find this unsetting.
- dependenttypes 7y ago> You don't have to like him to recognise injustice. I never said otherwise. If you look at my comment history you will see that I am against the injustice against RMS.
