You can "Rise Up" in a civil manner. That is what you will be doing by engaging the FSF in diplomatic discussion. It is a protest - just a more civil one than the twitter campaign that lies in waiting should you fail to do anything at all. We need formal assurance from the FSF that RMS remains our Chief GNUisance! Go organise - i.e #RiseUp !! Adrienne

All I can add to all of these well-said points is an expansion of the above advice. When you see others committing what you see as injustice, be better than them. Don't stoop to their level. Respond to emotion with reason. Please don't "#RiseUp" or anything so emotional. The resignation is done, like it or not. Our two biggest threats now are: 1. That the free software community is now split into warring factions, and 2. That some will now take a logical leap from the misunderstandings to accuse the free software community of "defending Epstein" and such. Let's focus on solving what we can. -- Patrick "P. J."
