Came here to say the same thing but for SVG

Never have I been happier to be proven wrong

I’ll freely admit that you know the “did not read the article and still commented” folks?

I’m a “didn’t watch the video” person and had to be told by other people what happened.

Also, at least one of them someone linked me of the foot thing was age restricted so I Xed out and took them at their word.

Wasn’t aware he ate from his feet specifically onstage.

Still not going to agree with you, sorry, as someone who does not agree with ridiculing people unless it’s necessary. Of course, I’m not a perfect human being, I have probably unfairly ridiculed people, especially when angry and when pretty sure my target is someone that nobody will argue against me ridiculing. I’m just… as a person who desperately tried to avoid being “the weirdo” and still might fail at avoiding that nowadays? I’m pretty anti-“what a weirdo lmao,” and want people left the fuck alone about their weird behaviors unless they are hurting people with the weird behavior; or they literally will not stop their actual harmful behaviors and ridiculing might have a slight chance to get through or erode the power they have to perform those bad behaviors consequence-free.

I can also admit that people probably do need some level of social judgment to not gross out the people around you, so the eating that onstage probably wasn’t a great move (do not know what happened in context, I’m not very up to date on the whole drama of Richard Stallman). Now I know it was onstage and not some leaked information about his personal life, this does at least make sense as something people would make fun of, especially given I think most people, even the socially inept, would figure out not to do this by 6th grade.

Still probably going to dig in my heels on my belief that in this particular discussion bringing this up after “this guy has dangerous/regressive beliefs” feels a lot more like “and look, he’s weird too!!! what a loser LMAO” gossip and less like a relevant thing we should know about him that can contribute to a useful informative discussion, though. Sorry.

Is he one of those awful people who the civil route has been tried with and did not work, and the (seemingly) only way to chip away at their power is to make fun of them and call them weird?

No personal investment in the dude, but this reads more like finding an acceptable target to punch on now that a claim he is dangerous has been made. Now he is wide open to “lol what a weirdo!” that would be seen as just irrelevant bullying if there wasn’t the claim he has regressive and harmful views. Now anyone who points out “hmm maybe bringing that up is mean, and not a good practice for debate” can be shut up with “are you really defending this awful person? That means you are on his side…”

It is useful to spread information of when someone’s dangerous, so people do not get hurt, like the link already posted by someone else here, detailing his views that align with pedophilia, and one I found that has depressingly predictable remarks a person with pedophilic-justifying beliefs might make about Epstein victims. But who cares about what he does with his toes?

I am also reminded of . Our entire problem with him is the pedophilia-justifying views and not weird but harmless personal habits. Not whatever toe thing he does.

checked community, this specific instance of the post is Opensource and not Europe or Denmark so I think it’s okay for me to open my American mouth and say: I hope they manage to resist. If Denmark can put up a successful fight, there is hope for the rest of us, including the Americans being crushed under Big Tech.
