No one is asking the EFF to agree with everything RMS says. However it's quite ironical that the EFF deviated from its stated goal of protecting free speech [1] on the Internet and joined the lynch mob trying to cancel RMS. This does cast the EFF in a negative light since now there's speech that the EFF likes and speech they don't. As long as there's such a dichotomy, it's hard to take an organization claiming to defend free speech seriously.
