«La pandemia no es una guerra, pero es la consecuencia de una que el capitalismo neoliberal ha desencadena­do contra la salud, el ambiente y el sistema sanitario público. El virus no es un enemigo, es un agente de mutación. Puede funcionar muy mal o bastante bien si somos capaces de salir de las condiciones sociales que han producido esta catástrofe. Es decir, solo una transformación igualitaria y frugal puede salvarnos de una fase horrible de agonía y, en definitiva, de la extinción».

The RMS situation makes me sad. Not about RMS himself, but the people on both sides of the debate.

There's these two open letters on Github now. Both contain names that I like and respect. Yet I've only seen one side of this discussion (maybe jokingly, but still) talking about how to use the list of other side's “tribe members” to cancel them in an automated matter. I'll let you guess which side that was.

Some people's righteousness goes so far that they can't fathom an idea that you can disagree with someone's methods while still agreeing with their ideas. This turns into “if you question my methods, you're obviously evil, harmful and not worth listening to”. I'm sure it's easier, but I don't think it's productive.

So, there. I'm not on either of these lists. I do think there's good arguments for having less RMS, especially as a “brand ambassador” of Free Software. I also think there is a deliberate attempt to misinterpret his position to prove a point, and I find the “against” letter plain despicable because of it. I don't think forming an angry mob against FSF, chanting “if you're not with us then you're against us” is helpful. We should be able to talk without calling each other ridiculous based on tribal assumptions.

Ante el aniquilamiento hecho contra , este articulo (inglés) intenta disgregar y dilucidar los hechos que han llevado a esta inaceptable situación.
