@eriner Among hackers who appreciate his software work but have had their default playfully anti-authoritarian political stances wrecked by the events of the past thirty years, there's a general understanding that you just don't read stallman.org (political opinions site). It's like taking your hippie grandpa's politics seriously; at some point you realise you're the foolish one.

You can email him, he responds to email consistently and with quite a lot of care, but if you take my advice...

inb4 rightwingers write their own rms open letter because leaving alone an old hippie who achieved more than most is too hard.

the left has a serious problem with applying their standards consistently, which is the reason they keep bleeding votes all over the west. instead of reflecting upon that MAYBE the problem is things like harris doing this gesture vs. musk doing this gesture is treated differently, they just go full authoritarian against people pointing these things out using the apparatus in place to memory hole criticism.

it's not even that right wing politicians etc. are better, it's that they are consistent. they announce doing authoritarian stuff and mostly follow through with it.

the left talks about love, peace and freedom and then proceeds to debank and take away children of critics and keep alive endless wars.

people do notice this. they don't care that politicians line their pockets, every politician does. they do care about the lies being consistent.

Can't believe Jeff Cliff sent a sleeper agent to poast summit to give us all a cold

Look at this picture and take a moment to reflect on the fact that this was done to Gaza by the same state that's capable of delivering explosive pagers to the militants it wants dead but somehow chose to level entire cities to "eradicate Hamas".

Grandmothers and elderly woman used to train young women to be mothers, they all had connections to each to help during childbirth, daycare and health. A husband provided everything they need until the kids could support each other. I wonder what happened to that.

> Eine wachsende Zahl von Kindern ist mehr als 35 Wochenstunden in der Kita: Das Statistische Bundesamt meldet von 2014 bis 2024 einen Anstieg um 30 Prozent. Auch die Gesamtzahl der Kita-Kinder hat zugenommen - beides erhöht den Personalbedarf.In Kindertageseinrichtungen in Deutschland werden lange Betreuungszeiten immer häufiger: Die Zahl der Kita-Kinder, die mehr als 35 Stunden pro Woche betreut werden, ist von 2014 bis 2024 um 30 Prozent gestiegen. Das teilte das Statistische Bundesamt mit. Knapp zwei Drittel (64 Prozent) dieser Kinder hatten zuletzt sogar eine festgelegte Betreuungszeit von mehr als 45 Wochenstunden. Ebenfalls gestiegen ist in den vergangenen zehn Jahren die Zahl der Kinder mit einer Betreuungszeit von 25 bis 35 Wochenstunden (plus 25 Prozent). Die durchschnittlich vereinbarte Betreuungszeit stieg damit in den vergangenen zehn Jahren von 35,3 auf 36,1 Stunden pro Woche. Im selben Zeitraum stieg die Zahl der betreuten Kinder um 20 Prozent, von 3,29 Millionen auf 3,94 Millionen.
