I'm sorry Ralf, when did I actively characterize Richard Stallman
alone as God's gift to the problem of software monopolies and hardware
monopolies etcetera? That doesn't seem to be a respectful thing to
push concerning Richard Stallman and what about other people in the
open source movement for that matter some of whom he works with? As
far as stringing conspiracy theories together, which ones are you
referring to as I find this to be a curious and interesting comment? I
could be deeply offended, but if Covid 19 has taught me anything it
has taught me that we need to be open minded and patient with one
another. The lack of hope too many of us are fighting thanks to this
stupid virus not being under control and we are not vaccinated against
it yet creates a challenge to think about: patience, prayer, and
openness to one another. Now is a good time to solve problems in
concert with other people instead of creating more problems that won't
get fixed :-)
Furthermore concerning Stallman, I've never met him myself where I
think we all need to take it easy when we are tempted to say things
about someone we haven't met. Jim Hall of course has met Richard
Stallman, but I see Jim that you are very conservative in what you say
despite having some very reasonable concerns about the man. Concern is
better than a lot of other things, concern can be positive and useful.
I can be a part of a healthy conversation, otherwise I have to
respectfully withdraw.
