If “accused” is the worst you could come up with, maybe you shouldn’t spread random accusations so wildly.

Anyway, regarding Richard Stallman and those accusations of “various kinds of sexual misconduct”:

What random accusations am I "spreading so wildly"? The fact that Stallman is being accused of various kinds of sexual misconduct is a fact. I did not anywhere claim they were true. I'm pointing it out because it makes the points above stand on shakier ground.

The article you shared also fails to defend many of the accusations against Stallman and completely ignores them, for example the "Emacs virgin girl" situation.

Technically, what you did was to insinuate, not directly accuse. Which one is worse?

Since you seem to have a great interest in this, do have any concrete reference to the “Emacs virgin” situation? I have only a vague recollection that Stallman was referring to anyone who had not used Emacs yet as an “Emacs virgin”, and some people took it as meaning some kind of sex thing.

(Any other references to the “many of the accusations against Stallman” that wasn’t referenced in the linked article would also be interesting to see.)

There are so many snowflakes in the tech world right now. Horrible.

But Linux had ~20 million lines of code and billions of installs before Linus' change of tone, so I think it is a good counter example.

> accused of various kinds of sexual misconduct

I don't think this is a fair counter example, he's been accused for expressing personal opinions, on his personal blog.

The accusations led to nothing.

Linus changed his tones just recently, now that he's older and have children, the "previous version" of Linus brought Linux to where it is though.

He's still very harsh when things get highly technical, because he's one of the few people that know at heart what's best for Linux.

Richard Stallman was accused of ""sexual misconduct"" ?
