This just continues with a bunch of half truths followed by blatant lies. Who has given you feedback that you are unwelcome. And btw, you are talking like you speak for a group of people. Who exactly is this group that is search for ways to remain in GNU but are getting negative feedback. What and who is giving you negative feedback.
This story, as you write it, is unbelievable.

You don't have to do any such thing. Nobody is asking you why you work for an organization headed by Richard. They don't. I know, it is bizzarre for you understand, but the braoder world couldn't care less about RMS and couldn't pick him out of a line up.
Aside from that, RMS has no such "bizzarre notions" about sex and consent. What is bizzarre is that you are fixated on a a falsehood, propagated by a lyer.

So that is the second false accusation that you peppered you email with, and somehow this is allowed on a public mailing list.
There is no corruption and nothing morally wrong with GNU or its leadership, and your saying that it is, makes you very suspect.
Their is nothing morally wrong with GNU, and there never was, or its leadership.
> downright evil,
I think this is the point where the term hysterical becomes appropriate..
at no time has GNU been evil, or run by evil people.
> and generally > bully them,
Nobody are GNU, from RMS down ever bullied ANYONE... period.
>while viewing themselves as morally superior.
GNU is an elitist organization that promotes that all software be Free.
But anyone can join.
