You're misquoting. That sub-quote is in favour of Wallace's position:
Here's the full two paragraphs:
**Plaintiff's mischaracterization** of the GPL in his Response
has no bearing on the resolution of the pending Motion to
Dismiss because the Court can examine the GPL itself. "[T]o
the extent that the terms of an attached contract conflict with
the allegations of the complaint, the contract controls."
Centers v. Centennial Mortg., Inc., 398 F.3d 930, 933 (7th Cir.
2005).1
**Contrary to Plaintiff**, the GPL is indisputably a **vertical
agreement** between the licensee and the licensor of the
underlying software, **as the Court has already held** in
granting the FSF's prior motion to dismiss:
What remains to be seen is if that's either intentional misquoting, or
just plain stupidity.
