[Serious Talk] [Politics] Defending Richard Stallman
4 years ago
Hello there everyone,
I have been made aware that there is a petition being made on github trying to remove Richard Stallman from the Free Software Foundation. I believe that this letter is made using slander and misinterpretations of what Richard Stallman had said.
Stallman is not transphobic or anything like that. He is a extremely important person for the Free Software movement and as a fellow GNU/Linux user I believe he should remain in the FSF and that the people forcing this slander on him are simply trying to do a take over of the FSF. Hell, Stallman himself has been supportive of the LBGT community since the 1980's!
For proof that Stallman has been defending and in support of the Trans Community you need only look at these links on his personal website as well as a website that goes into detail on the last time these grifters tried to remove him:

Massachusetts citizens: urge your state rep and senator to vote for the Transgender Equal Rights Bill.
https://www.stallman.org/archives/2.....#19_June_2013_(Urgent:_Employment_nondiscrimination_protection)
US citizens: call for passage of employment nondiscrimination protection for gays and transgenders.
https://www.stallman.org/archives/2.....13_March_2015_(Discrimination)
A proposed California bill would stop the state from doing business with companies that discriminate against transgender employees. I think it is a step in the right direction.
https://www.stallman.org/archives/2....._October_2018_(Urgent:_Recognition_of_transsexuals)
US citizens: oppose the bully's plan to make parts of the federal government deny all recognition to transsexuals. If you sign, please spread the word!
https://www.stallman.org/archives/2.....eptember_2020_(Urgent:_discrimination_against_trans_people)
US citizens: call on the Department of Housing and Urban Development not to allow discrimination against trans people.
If anything this is proof that Stallman is being targeted and slandered by people who are nothing but unwitting patsies for big corporations like Google and Microsoft trying to destroy the Free Software and Opensource Community.
