I agree with everything you said. I just hope that we applied the same rationale in an even-keeled and level-headed manner in other cases where similar concerns are raised. I hope we don't make exceptions for our favorite pet causes no matter how close to the heart and rule against those who were found to have either voiced opinions or acted in an antagonistic manner to such causes, even when those decisions are thorny and sentimental.[1][2][3] [1] Mozilla CEO resigns, opposition to gay marriage drew fire https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mozilla-ceo-resignation/mozilla-ceo-resigns-opposition-to-gay-marriage-drew-fire-idUSBREA321Y320140403 https://www.reuters.com/article/us-mozilla-ceo-resignation/m...

I find those completely different cases. Stallman didn't say what accusations attributed to him at all, and at least some stuff that is thrown around is clearly a misinterpretation for anyone who knows his autistic nature and context of being a person many people joke about. This situation is hardly related to the Eich one.

> in an even-keeled and level-headed manner in other cases where similar concerns are raised. It's so nice and heartwarming that you're complimenting his even-keeled and level-headed manner on a subject both of you know as much as a first-grader knows quantum mechanics. It's the blind leading the blind and complimenting each other for their clear-sightedness.
