A group of people including Drew DeVault are trying to cancel RMS again, basing their claims on ancient misinterpreted quotes. Stallman may be controversial, but these activists are just acid for the entire Free Software movement.

this is the attack on stallman

seems prett damning to me

also i'm going to let devault himself rebut this

also no: stallman being under attack for credible accusations and even non-retracted public statements is not an "attack on free software" but a much needed clean up. call it a refactoring of legacy assets, if you want.
