schestowitzAnyone who follows Stallman, or knows Stallman, is going to know that this is how he responds to improper uses of specific terminology. As stated in the article, it’s his form of “intellectual discourse.”Apr 15 06:32
schestowitzTo expect him to answer questions in any other way, is like getting mad at Schwarzenegger for saying “I’ll be back.” You KNOW he’s going to say it.Apr 15 06:32
schestowitzStallman’s response was no different than when he explains the difference between “Open Source” and “Free” when someone uses the wrong terminology.Apr 15 06:32
schestowitzI read nothing that condoned the actions of Epstein, or even the alleged actions of Minsky. The media and social groups in this country are too quick to judge when they hear one little thing that seems to be out of place, and then give no one a chance to explain anything.Apr 15 06:32
