    He has went on record multiple times saying having sex with children (even within the family) or family pets is fine. Eating his foot gunk is the least of my issues with him.

    That said, when it comes to warning about software, he was pretty bang-on.

        It’s pretty well-known at this point, I thought? Regardless:

        “The nominee is quoted as saying that if the choice of a sexual partner were protected by the Constitution, ‘prostitution, adultery, necrophilia, bestiality, possession of child pornography, and even incest and pedophilia’ also would be. He is probably mistaken, legally–but that is unfortunate. All of these acts should be legal as long as no one is coerced. They are illegal only because of prejudice and narrowmindedness.”

        "I am skeptical of the claim that voluntarily pedophilia harms children. The arguments that it causes harm seem to be based on cases which aren’t voluntary, which are then stretched by parents who are horrified by the idea that their little baby is maturing. "

        RMS on June 5th, 2006

        "There is little evidence to justify the widespread assumption that willing participation in pedophilia hurts children.

        You can find these on Stallman’s blog, which I believe is Stallman.org iirc. Just go to the dates I provided.

          I cannot find any of this on his blog, why didn’t you just link to his blog?

              You pasted the domain not an actual blog post link. And you’re the one making these claims about him on a forum, does it really surprise you when someone asks for the source? Sorry you had to google something.

                I gave a link to the source, his blog, and gave instructions on how to find each statement. I even gave timestamps.

                I gave you the source as soon as you asked. The source is Stallman’s blog, stallman.org.

                Apology accepted, don’t worry about it. You just came across as a bit of a sealion, that’s all.

                Anyway, the point is, yes, Stallman has been a repeated defender of paedophilia and having sex with family pets.

                Personally for me that’s a mark against him. But that’s just my opinion, a lot of people in the Linux don’t really mind.

                I’m sorry I hurt your feelings. But I’ll take that downvote and no reply as a “yes, you were right. Stallman is a disgusting supporter of child rape and bestiality”.

                Perhaps you can learn from this. Celebrity worship is bad. It blinds you to the faults of people. Stallman doesn’t deserve your simping.

                  This makes no sense. This person made a claim and I asked what the source was. Shouldn’t they know where their own comment came from?

                    Mike, you came at this person twice. He gave you a url and since you’re on Lemmy we assume you’re at least halfway internat savvy.

                    In my shoes I’d have at least put in a few minutes of effort to look for the information on that site. Or even a general search. ANYTHING to evince my capability for critical thought.

                    You were given 99% more than most are in this type of exchange and still lazily demanded more. You didn’t just ask and you weren’t all that polite. I found it lazy. That you appear to feel a keen need to have the last word in this type of situation is also worth a bit of reflection.

                You calmed down? You agree he supports paedophilia, yes? The evidence is right there. I provided sources for you a bunch of times.
