| schestowitz__ | I don't say that Linus is wrong, but Stallman and the GNU Project care most about freedom than Linus. He first released the source code of Linux under a very restrictive license so nobody cared, then backpedaled and released it under GPL. Moreover, as long as I know Linux has the GPL v2 and he does not like GPL v3, that protects more personal freedom. Also, if I remember rigth at the beginning Linus was opposed to the separation of | Apr 27 05:58 |
| schestowitz__ | code and binary blobs because that is not efficient and is based only on ideology and legal reasons, not technical ones. | Apr 27 05:58 |
| schestowitz__ | But you have to compromise sooner or later in order to keep going and avoid a situation like OpenBSD so I don't judge Linus bad, but certainly people like Stallman cares a lot more about freedom. | Apr 27 05:58 |

Also, if I remember rigth at the beginning Linus was opposed to the separation of | Apr 27 05:58 |

| schestowitz | "The Holocaust Industry: Reflections on the Exploitation of Jewish Suffering was published in 2000. Here, Finkelstein argues that Elie Wiesel and others exploit the memory of the Holocaust as an "ideological weapon." This is done so the State of Israel, "one of the world's most formidable military powers, with a horrendous human rights record, [can] cast itself as a victim state", in order to garner "immunity to criticism."[23] He also | Apr 27 17:30 |
| schestowitz | alleges what he calls a "double shakedown" by "a repellent gang of plutocrats, hoodlums and hucksters" seeking enormous legal damages and financial settlements from Germany and Switzerland, moneys which then go to the lawyers and institutional actors involved in procuring them, rather than actual Holocaust survivors" | Apr 27 17:30 |
| schestowitz | "In February 2012, Finkelstein "launched a blistering attack" on the BDS movement, saying it was a "hypocritical, dishonest cult", "[l]ike the Munchkin cult in Oz," that tries to cleverly pose as human rights activists while in reality their goal is to destroy Israel. Furthermore, Finkelstein stated that the BDS movement has had very few successes, and that just like a cult, the leaders pretend that they are hugely successful when in | Apr 27 17:36 |
