Interim Housing

Well this is what happens when people use cancel culture on anyone that they disagree with, especially career twitter archaeologists who dig up old tweets and put them out of context.

The result? A pioneering hacker in computer science, free software and privacy that has been shamed for wrong-thinkery, and has been financially suffocated, censored, and successfully cancelled. This cancel-culture is disgusting and is utterly unacceptable to treat anybody like this, no matter what their views are.

The title of the blog post is "interim housing," and should be changed from its current clickbait title per the site guidelines, and nowhere in the post does Stallman say he's homeless, or that he's looking for a permanent residence.

He may or may not be, but

    I am looking for a room in a shared house or apartment as an 
    interim place where I could stay for at least two months. 
    Ideally I would have the option of staying for up to six 
    months, but I could do without that.

doesn't make it seem like he's in dire straits.

I remember reading somewhere that his only source of income was giving talks, which he does irregularly. As the @krapp noted (don't know why he was downvoted) he may or may not be in dire straits but he is said to care little about money to the point of getting himself in tricky financial situations. Kinda like the brilliant Computer Science/Math student who helps everyone else with their assignments but gets kicked out of school for failing too many classes--because he didn't bother to turn in assignments.

That was quite fast . Was he living pay check to pay check or am i missing something ?

On one hand, nobody should be encouraging RMS to continue in his bizarre offensive lifestyle. It's well past time he stopped treating women like garbage, and stopped treating men like garbage, and learned how to be a decent human being.

On the other hand, he's such a houseguest from hell that anyone who ignores basic morality and takes him in anyway will be sufficiently punished for their breach and no further social sanction will be necessary.
