Not only that, but the Working Class License itself is a blatant violation
of the FSF's copyright, unless the author has a private license from the
FSF to create such a thing (which I do not believe, as it fails to
acknowledge the FSF in any way). As the GPL says right at the top:
"Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this
license document, but changing it is not allowed."
