The only good pedo is a pedo permanently separated from society. Let’s start with the Catholic Church

Anyone smart at AWS has been laid off or quit. The outages at AWS are going to get longer and more frequent.

He was close friends with two high profile pedophiles. That’s enough for me.

That there was a protest against something in Beijing from April until June 4th 1989.

Heard the glorious communist party rolled over the protestors with tracks but that’s impossible!

Wow that was a trip down red herring lane.

I’d do it in pirate speak, like a warning on catholic buildings saying ‘yarr there be pedophiles around these waters, yarr!’

That’s a fantastic idea, let’s swap all the laws pertaining to drugs and received religions. I’d love to see Catholicism, Southern Baptists, Orthodox Judaism, Whabbi and Salafi Islam considered Schedule 1 Religions.

You weren’t wrong about Islam, you were just too specific. All received religions needs to go.

Nobody is a zero or a one. I appreciate your advocacy but I just have a different standard, no more and no less.

Sounds a bit like special pleading to me. I’m happy to admit that he’s done more to advance the usage of FOSS than anyone. I’m also able to feel disgusted by his personal beliefs that he published whether or not he retracted them later.

I am very familiar with Autism and I know enough about it that using it as a blanket excuse for someone’s words or behaviors is dangerous. Good on him for amending his opinion 6 or 7 years later, I still wouldn’t invite that man into my home.

!05 June 2006 (Dutch paedophiles form political party)

Dutch pedophiles have formed a political party to campaign for legalization. [Reference updated on 2018-04-25 because the old link was broken.]

I am skeptical of the claim that voluntarily pedophilia harms children. The arguments that it causes harm seem to be based on cases which aren’t voluntary, which are then stretched by parents who are horrified by the idea that their little baby is maturing.

[Many years after posting this note, I had conversations with people who had been sexually abused as children and had suffered harmful effects. These conversations eventually convinced me that the practice is harmful and adults should not do it.]!<

It took convincing from real victims to convince him that minors cannot in fact give informed consent for sexual relations with adults. It also took many years.

Forgive me if I remain skeptical.

Keep drinking the Stallman Kool aid my friend. He said what he said, publicly, most revolutionaries have a fucked up side, we don’t often hear it out of their own mouths.

For me saying that sexual encounters with minors isn’t always harmful is beyond the pale and there’s no take backs.

Ahhhh noted pedophile apologist Richard Stallman

Elon Musk is no George Washington.

Women aren’t allowed to lead men in prayer but men are allowed to lead women in prayer. I love how male Muslim apologists use their own lack of personal responsibility to justify the systematic disenfranchisement of women the same way Roman Catholics and Orthodox Jews do. It’s almost like messianic received religion is the core issue and less religious societies have less sexual and physical violence towards women.

He was cool about women, but still travelled with 12 dudes. The 4 gospels set up the mythology and philosophy. The letters from Paul set the rules. The later books just went wild.

Does your penis feel threatened? Should go ask a female Roman Catholic priest what to do about it.

They are mandated by state law to vote for the candidate that won the state. It is absolutely a ceremonial position.

Spring for one with a warm water reservoir… your anus will thank you.

I dabble in both. These cables are nowhere near messed up enough to count as cable gore. I saw a rack where someone decided that the VOIP switches didn’t need port maps so every time they moved a phone around (don’t ask me why they didn’t just fix it in the config) they would just run a new patch cable from the port on the switch to the new port on the patch panel. Rinse and repeat for about 5 years and the rats nest of yellow cabling was a beauty to behold.
