How about this. You are a relentless prick for all the malicious damage
you caused, and eventually chickens are going to come home to roost.
You've been taking advantage of the good will of the GNU community for a
long time, but eventually people get wise to you hatred, selfishness and
blind ambition.
You think you are building yourself up, Ludovic, but the reality is you
are setting yourslef up for a big takedown.
Your fraud and hatred is going to be addressed and it will follow you
around for very long time, perhaps the rest of your life.
The problems here aren't moderation. It is your vicious actions that
you do leaves tread marks on the backsides anyone who you think gets in
your way. Human Beings don't like being road kill, and no matter how
you package it up, we know you for what you are... less than pound scum.
You waylaid RMS and GNU with buckshot and now complain when people get
vocal about being made your targets. Forget about that big boy. We
don't play that way.
