Except that these 10 people never materialize if someone who has made 10 "wrong" statements in a decade is canceled.
Which is why cancel tactics are employed only in mature code bases, and the 10 people who do materialize are power hungry bureaucrats who associate themselves with the work of others for financial gain.
So words "have consequences", and you asscociate Stallman's gaffes with:
- Dangers of LSD.
- Words of actual cult leaders, who are universally charismatic and manipulative. Stallman is the exact opposite and has zero influence outside the free software topic. Stallman is incapable of being manipulative.
- Mass murderers.
- Charismatic DJs in the Rwandan genocide.
I'm speechless that in this supposedly rational forum people employ the same dirty tactics as on Twitter.
