If the FSF Board votes soon on whether RMS should be reinstalled, gives into outside pressure and decides to keep him out, the world would interpret this as endorsement of the widespread view that RMS "defended" Jeffrey Epstein. Now the individuals on the Board may make their decisions on other grounds, but I am afraid many people are not going to pay attention.
Why would anyone defend a pedophile? The most likely reason: because he (or she) is a pedophile too. I believe many of you have photos with RMS posing beside. Think well how they will play in the hands of your adversaries.
