You realize I didn’t write that article, yes?
Maybe give it a read in-full first, and then consider its main point:
effective base building and movement organizing is difficult given the
tendencies in FSF and LibrePlanet and elsewhere that are more inclined to
favor their own small in-groups
I appreciate what the last email says about delegating, but can’t wholly
