“If you actively harass women at work for literally 30 years and do not stop any of the many, many times people to stop, and then also justify the sexual abuse of children as your job tries to distance itself from it’s collaboration with a know pedophile you might lose your job” doesn’t seem like it’s going to be a situation that will ever be relevant to my life, thank.

I too am very disturbed by the historic records of Stallman's bad behavior. Was he ever forced to take sensitivity training or anything, or did everyone just ignore it?
Everyone put plants in their office to passive aggressively shield themselves, because RMS hates plants.
That's pretty much straight from encyclopediadramatica (except they refer to a particular plant) or second-hand (starsandrobots).
The rumour would be more poetic if it said he liked plants, and that he feigned having a phobia to get people to have office plants.

I don’t know why this is being downvoted: it is actually true. I know it sounds ridiculous, but that is because tolerating his behavior for this long was ridiculous.
