You are free to show me exactly where it criticizes the FSF beyond their interactions with stallman.

I'm glad we agree that DeVault's Stallman Report attacks the FSF.

I don't view pointing out that Stallman is not fit for a position of leadership to be an "attack" on the FSF or the free software community.

OP didn't say which of the many attacks in the report they were referring to, they just said the report was "an attack". I've no idea why you believe OP was referring to DeVault's claim that Stallman is not fit for a position of leadership. That doesn't make any sense. If one were being uncharitable, one might even say it was.. irrational.

Edit: corrected quote, clarified wording

TLDR: Drew DeVault may be viewing Loli images.

Do you consider viewing Loli images to be OK? Where do you stand on that subculture?

Stallman is not the FSF.

FYI, DeVault's Stallman Report explicitly attacks the FSF as well as Stallman.

The FSF is not the free software community

OP said that the report was "an attack on the FSF and the free software community in general" which doesn't imply that the FSF is the free software community and in fact is explicitly distinguishing the two. I took it mean that the report was such a deceitful and irrational work, presented in such a duplicitous manner as to constitute an attack on the senses of the community.

Edit: in fact, the report does attack the community, even if justification for the attack is invalid:

akin to the teaching of creationism in the science curriculum across the pond

LOL that's off-the-deep-end hyperbole

the report makes it obvious what objectionable statements were made

I disagree. The report claims there are disagreeable statements but when you actually look at the quotes of what Stallman said, they don't match the claims or conclusions of the report.

This is why I'm asking if you can actually quote something Stallman said.

I believe you're arguing in bad faith

I don't think you've actually read the report.

From what? I'm not sure what in the report you think needs apologising for. Did you actually read the report? Is there a sentence you can quote and say "he needs to apologise for this"?

[–] rah@feddit.uk 1 points 10 months ago (5 children)

recants and / or apologizes

Just curious what, precisely, you would expect him to recant or apologise for?
