I just remembered that Eric Raymond exists.

You know what his existence makes me wonder, right?

Why don't cancel culture mob people like Drew Devault not go after people like Eric Raymond? He has said things that are way worse than the morally questionable things that Stallman has ever said.

Eric Raymond is an actual homophobic rightoid who thinks the gays deserve aids, and actively pushes against women working tech.

my take is that they regard RMS as progressive heretic, not someone of completely different faith.

true belivers hate those who threaten their cults most, as it shows things for how they are, a cult.

someone who is of a completely different faith just is 100% evil or hasn't seen the light, both of which are pretty easy to justify to yourself.
