I resigned from this list (now I'm sending this reply as a non-list member) not because I'm withdrawing support from the FSF; I still wholeheartedly support them. It's just that the libreplanet mailing list doesn't benefit me personally... and it gets a lot of spam. I have to delete spam from this list all the time. Btw I consider free software relevant topics spam too, most of the time. Spam is any specific subject that doesn't benefit me personally. I'm not heavily involved with the FSF these days, though I'm still a supporter. I greatly admire RMS. He is a good man. I've met him in person on several occasions. He comes off as rude but... yeah I guess he's probably just autistic like me. I wouldn't worry. People see inflammatory threads like this for what they are. People just hate drama, that's all.
