Richard Matthew Stallman (born March 16, 1953), often called Stallman or referred to by his initials RMS, is a Statesian computer scientist and founder of the Free Software Foundation. He was forced to resign from the FSF for defending pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.[1]

Stallman commented on the rape of a 14-year-old by an adult woman, stating: “I wish an attractive woman had ‘abused’ me that way when I was 14.”[2]

Ableism

In 2016, Stallman had published a statement likening having a child with Down Syndrome with having a pet, saying: “If you'd like to love and care for a pet that doesn't have normal human mental capacity, don't create a handicapped human being to be your pet. Get a dog or a parrot. It will appreciate your love, and it will never feel bad for being less capable than normal humans.”[3]
