The FSF minus Stallman is a rotten organization; simply adding Stallman
back is not enough. It could use a good old-fashioned house-cleaning.
Everyone behind that heinous, cowardly move should in fact be ousted.
It actually boggles the mind how such leftist nonsense is tolerated in
country that elected Trump, on a platform consisting of material such
as "grab `em by the pussy", against the reproaches of which throngs of
people
chanted "we don't care", and who might just give him a second term.
The average American will absolutely not condemn Stallman for some
remarks
made in defense of Minsky (perfectly understandable and well within his
right), or some comments he wrote on mailing lists on this topic or that
that were actually well-reasoned and rationally defensible.
That's definitely a double standard. You can be as odious as you want,
if
you have money and power that buy you the attention and support of the
populace, otherwise you can't even breathe the wrong word.
