    It’s unfortunate. And it’s very strange that a lot of the cult just ignores it or actively covers it up

    I was banned from the Reddit sub because of it lol, hopefully here doesn’t have the same mods

      Yea, at the moment I think (or want to think) that he himself doesn’t pose a threath to children or is pedo and also do belive that he generally is a person with a good intent with a terrible take on this topic.

        This is something he mentioned literally a few times between 2003 and 2013 (and he talks about a lot of stuff - check stallman.org) and he doesn’t even believe anymore. In 2019 he said that it was something he used to believe, but he realised he was wrong. You can read it on Wikipedia (unfortunately I can’t find the original source for the quote right now): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Stallman#Controversies

          All of a sudden “changed his mind” once the spotlight was on him.

          He loves paedophilia and actively encourages it. And you make excuses. Stop advocating for child rape. And I hope you haven’t/won’t rape any kids.

          At least that nonce is gonna die soon.
