We, the undersigned, call for the entire Board of the FSF to step down and for Richard M. Stallman to be removed from all leadership positions. We will not continue suffering his behavior, giving him a leadership role, or otherwise holding him and his hurtful and dangerous ideology as acceptable.

    <offtopic> Threads like this are where I point when people accuse Lemmy admins of not allowing different opinions. How many people in these threads got banned for a different opinion, hmm? </offtopic>

    (apparently I need to clarify, nobody has been banned for dissent. This is a pro-mods comment)

      your absolutely right, they don’t like free thought

        Way to completely misunderstand my point. I’m saying people aren’t getting banned for dissent. They usually get banned for explicit racism and bigotry.

          And for quoting Didier Raoult, one of the scientists with the higher h-index in the world.

      How so? I have mostly seen the admins behave nicely toward different views.

        Exactly. Nobody has been getting banned for dissent. But people still say that.

            Not for just dissent they don’t.

                It didn’t get removed for dissent. It got removed for spreading harmful misinformation.

                  This is your opinion though. I mentioned Didier Raoult as source, isn’t it enough?
