@eff Hold on... Are you saying that the state is oppressive!?

@LuigiEsq@mastodon.social Being frank, I'm an adult, and I just want to put whatever I choose in my body. The state having control over what I consume has always bothered me. Prohibition never really works, either, so we would also end up with a black market for flavored vape juice, which could lead to a situation similar to what we've seen with the black market THC we've seen in the last little while, where people get seriously ill from poorly made product.

@lesbianBot please don't vague me, thanks

I don't really care if I loose followers over this, I'm very tired of being quiet about it.

As someone who is on the autism spectrum, the symptoms are obvious. RMS clearly is autistic, and fails at social interaction, as do I. I don't think that justifies the very blatant quote mining Vice did. Stallman has always been a very progressive person, if you ever paid attention to his website he would constantly call for people to campaign for women's rights, queer rights, etc. He's never treated anyone unfairly based on who they are. I've talked to him before, he's a genuinely nice person.

"The thing is, I think Richard is probably high-functioning autistic... like me. He says stupid things sometimes, without taking into account how other people will feel (because he can't. which is OK. I don't understand other peoples emotions either)."

"The sad thing is that RMS is one of the champions of womens rights in
the free software world. He has said some stupid things in the past,
but he's a really nice guy and really supportive. He's always there to
answer emails and offer guidance on things. He is one of my role models."

"He accepted my project (Libreboot) into the GNU project, after I came
out as transgender for instance. It didn't phase him at all."

Leah Rowe (maintainer of Libreboot) perfectly sums up my feelings on Stallman in two emails:

I get to write an essay on The Hacker Manifesto for English class. Uni is great.

It is rather upsetting when people trash JS devs just because of the abuse by some web developers. Please don't do that, JS is not an inherently bad language. It being shoehorned into every website, often by the demand of companies, is the issue.

What I'm saying is: Please don't make an entire website that just needs to be text in React because it looks prettier. I understand if you're building something that requires user interaction, but if I'm going on the website of a local business and it won't display without JS... It's rather frustrating.

I would be much more comfortable with some of alternate standard, a standard for webapps where folks could download them similarly to how "Chromium Apps" used to work. But the idea of having the web filled with JS instead of the originally intended hypertext makes me a bit... sad. Espeically because I never really lived to see the web in it's purest form. I started using the internet in the Flash era.
