@arh@toots.alirezahayati.com it is also worth considering that rms not resigning is now presently harming the fsf and their mission regardless of anything he did or didn't do in the past.
that people are losing their shit because he now has one diluted vote amongst the rest of a board is ridiculous imho.
@icedquinn @arh@toots.alirezahayati.com the issue is not his ability to vote, it is with the rest of the leadership who thinks associating with creepy toejam eaters is okay and isn't using *their* votes to immediately kick him out. that criticism is 100% valid, too. the fsf is doing a bad job of handling this crisis. rms is also not helping the situation. free software loses.
Free software has turned into politics and now everyone in that movement is a politician.
@newt @icedquinn @arh@toots.alirezahayati.com free software didn't turn into politics, lone wolves liked to pretend they didn't exist in society. now society is into software and you actually have to acknowledge being good or bad at participating in society, and sometimes lead. being a good leader (and board member) doesn't give a fuck about how good you are at writing compilers alone in a basement. it is a different skill and being good at one is orthogonal to other
