+1 Dora!!

Such is the level of fright that this self-righteousness cult has created.

I disagree, however, that "It _will_ stop". The corporate-backed campaign
against RMS chooses to exploit women to throw their grenades. These women
are proxies, front[women] serving greedy corporate interests seeking to
control Free/Libre/Open-source software.

We should not give them (the proxies) legitimacy by entertaining them.

Legal action will be necessary to bring an end to the attacks.

Franta, I made suggestions, days ago, about a constitution for GNU. Let's
work on this suggestion.
