Valdikiss is right.
I know RMS (in person) and I think that you play games here. What you *really mean* is that anyone not largely agreeing with your woke position is somehow evil or at least wrong.
"gay" - in the "old times" (pre 2016) I've worked with many gays, BDSMers, and whatnot, but I can only presume that because I didn't care. In work we usually only looked at work related factors. Ones sexual, food, or other personal taste or choice or belief simply was irrelevant. And well noted, I'm considered an "ultra conservative" person in your circles.
The other core issue is objective facts vs. "feeling". Pre 2016 you felt this or that, oh well what would I care? Maybe I did care because I liked you, maybe I didn't because after all it was just your *feeling*.
Today though all those woke fanatics want to force us to accept their feelings as somehow relevant and even on the same level as facts - sorry, no, your feelings are *not* equally relevant as facts.
RMS - whom I do not particularly like - is right. Simple as that. His right to speak his mind is no less valid than what you feel. He also is right because words do have meaning. The word "rape" means to do something sexual without the other persons consent, period. Saying that a minor can't legally consent is trickery. That same minor *can* have consensual sex with another minor, so it's obviously *not* his incapacity to consent that is the problem. And btw more than a few in "liberal" circles actually are *pro* sex with minors.
FYI/context: I do not like RMS, I do not care about Minsky, I am not pro trump, and I'm not even american.I'm definitely tired and pi**ed off though of the woke games and BS.
Let's stay realistic
