Here comes the threats ... Really demoralises folks like us who create free software 🙁

@lupyuen looks like a god damn shit show is what it is... do you know what contribution they are even referring to?

@freemo @lupyuen i guess the whole rms thing.

while i am really opposed to the cancelling of rms and think it is wrong, harrassing people over their opinion isn't ok in any way.

@bonifartius @freemo @lupyuen yes, the people doing this are becoming exactly what the RMS support letter was against - campaigns of harassment against innocents.

@freemo @footjamfan @bonifartius @lupyuen If you signed the RMS letter you most likely did it with a commit that has your email address on it, so it's pretty trivial to get to.

@freemo @szalayricha @footjamfan @bonifartius @lupyuen well fuck me.

i thought it was going to be the cancel camp that shot first on this.
@georgia @lupyuen i almost k//lled myself when i read the word but thank goodness it was censored

@lupyuen
Is it possible to get this email adress of sender? We may establish secure channel for exchange. Curious. Might tip you slightly.

@lupyuen Do... they think you're American? or they're American and know you're not? 🤔 I guess anger and thoughtfulness don't go together.

The abuse is really disappointing and I'm sorry it's happening to you. I guess it's not that surprising though. 🙁

I assume there are probably some signatories getting even worse than this.

Nothing in my email yet, even though I used my normal email address for the commit...

@lupyuen Ah yes, the 1917 Russian revolution. That famous event where the Bolsheviks wrote an open letter asking the Czar and his inner circle to step down.
