If you don't stand up for #RMS who will stand up for you when the same establishment comes after you? Do you expect your fellow man to believe your innocence any more than they believed RMS's?

Dissidents that the state and state collaborators labeled as perverted (more or less) in order to get the public to turn against them.
1. Julian Assange
2. Jacob Appelbaum
3. Richard Stallman
Who will be next?
4. Ai Weiwei????
*No because, for the moment, he is an asset so long as he is critical of the Chinese Communist Party
THIS IS HOW PROPAGANDA WORKS
Don't be so easily manipulated by the bullshit that is being spread about #RMS . If you are one of those "If what he said is true..." "I'm with her" you are not entitled to spread more octane to an already out of control blaze.
If all you are saying publicly is that you disagree with a small sound bite or even just two words, that is proof that you are not smart enough to see that this is a strategic campaign to eliminate RMS or any of his supporters.
Don't join the merry band of idiots.
You have to look at everything said and always assume malintent by churnalists who have nothing to offer than broken, severly redacted and out right libelously false quotes as evidence of someone needing a crucifiction.
@purism That's excellent! Personally, I've never bought into the "PGP is too hard" or "the user experience and interface is too scary" nonsense, but then again I am a bit of a fanatic about what is right and wrong with email and have been known to scorch people for top-posting and using anything other than plain text. What Microsoft/Outlook and Google/Gmail have done to train generations of people to do everything wrong with email is enough, alone, to condemn them to hell. As you might have guessed, I use (neo)mutt and gpg from a terminal... everything else is an abomination. #oldschool #getoffmylawn
This is good, but people really should learn how to use GnuPG and other independent tools. Too many of us trusted a company that vowed not to be evil, and look where we are now. #privacy #security #encryption
We the people (including men and women) are stronger than these autocrats who believe it is their divine right to tear others down because a world view being expressed is different from their own.
Richard Stallman is a Human Being who deserves our respect not simply for reputation but because he has not actually done anything wrong.
Expressing an oppinion even if controversial is not an excuse to treat another Human being this way.
I will not join the witch hunt take down campaign that some truly disturbed members of society have taken it upon themselves to do.
We can take back our Liberty by not going down to the level of these despicable people who take pleasure in lying and hurting men and frankly the women who support us.
Just remember folks, this could easily happen to you or me so whilst many of us will leave the FSF related groups, which is fine, we must never stop speaking up.
Like Snowden said, Speak not because its safe but because it is the right thing to do. This applies to us Men too!
Courage is contagious!
@fsfe This is truly upsetting to hear.
Historic win for privacy.

@Jaarbahd sure will once I listen to more of it.
@Captain "what do you propose?"
Duckduckgo is brilliant. I use it for everything just about.
I recently made a post about a tip for how you can search duckduckgo.com for specific filetypes like Docs PDFs . But I forgot to mention you can do the same for excel files.
Unfortunately at this time duckduckgo only allows a limited number of file types but its a fantastic feature none the less.
@Jaarbahd You have introduced me to some new music.
I love it! Thank you so much.
@Absinthe To clarify. I was refering to the situation in Hong Kong for example. Where the HK chief executive keeps talking about law and order.
Also in the case of Theresa May when she was attacking Julian Assange saying "no one is above the law" even though many of the actions of the british government and its secret spy organisations on a daily basis are "above the law" and can't be questioned despite the publications of Wikileaks proving severe wrong doing.
@Absinthe I agree with you.
My Views are my own.
