Who cares if rms has Aspergers? That would not diminish nor reinforce his opinions.

Stallman has this great ability (in my opinion) of the philosopher: abstracting himself from the social world as it is to figure out how we could make it better. His opinions on natality are an excellent example: they clearly go against the admitted moral since congratulating the parents for their newborns is widely regarded as "normal". Anybody is free to agree or disagree with rms but just saying "rms is a jerk" is not an argument and is, unfortunately, the usual reaction to his non-conventional opinions.
