You're not the only one here? And pedantry is rather immaterial in the long run.

Stallman certainly fits the bill, but when it is time to render a judgement we all need to focus on the details. We need to render a judgement on what actually happened, not what quick-to-outrage folks imagined happened. Details matter here.

A few people appear to believe that when something very bad happens we need to expand culpability to include everyone in the neighborhood who's not sufficiently condemning. I hope it is a minority viewpoint.

If you would like to make a point that isn't a direct rebuttal to mine, it is possible to start your own thread, and make your point there.

As it stands, you seem to agree that RMS' point was pedantic.
