> RMS has (for some reason) tens of thousands of political notes on his website ready to be cherry-picked

It used to be quite okay to share your opinions, political or not, on your website.

It they concern anything that is of importance, some people will find it disagreeable and even offensive.

The fact that we are at a point where expressing this is somehow strange and it’s accepted that you can be subjected to cherry-picking and so should abstain from posting anything that might be considered controversial by some radical;

That’s a horrible place for our society to be in. I’m glad the competing support letter has far more supporters.

I’m tired but not surprised that we have to include politics in everything.

Make software better instead.
