  Maybe someone with an extremely low emotional IQ should not be the public face of an activism organization whose primariy job is to persuade the public, then? A lot of the internal-to-the-free-software-community frustration with RMS was how he had basically stopped contributing code to GNU but still felt entitled to overrule maintainers. He is a talented coder! He could have continued to use his skills to write free software and delegated the work of being the face of the movement to others. He could have listened when people suggested to him that he'd be of greater service to the movement that way. He didn't do any of that. Not everyone is ideally suited for every role. That's part of being understanding of neurodivergence.

    Sounds like stereotypical manager that used to code, stopped doing and slowly forgot how it is done, but still think it is good idea to talk about it constantly.
