His first sentence is a (slightly testy) comment that the emacs mailing list wasn't the right forum for a birth announcement. This didn't require telling the guy that the birth of his child was menacing, insignificant because it was accomplished by a female instead of a male, and complicit in mass starvation and genocide. The "wrong forum" content was just an incidental cover for a long-form attack on that person because it happened to push Stallman's buttons, and Stallman was in a position of power on the list from which he could conveniently abuse the poster without fear of repercussion. It's bullying every bit as much as the attacks on Stallman.
