@FaheemMitha Regarding the whole RMS thing, I think this best sums it up. RMS said:

> We can imagine many scenarios, but the most plausible scenario is that she presented herself to him as entirely willing. Assuming she was being coerced by Epstein, he would have had every reason to tell her to conceal that from most of his associates.

But the Medium article reported it as:

> …and then he says that an enslaved child could, somehow, be “entirely willing”.

The very definition of contextomy.

please stop

@MichaelHomer This is twice you mentioned that you disliked this topic. What problem do you have with it?

Is a controversial topic important to FOSS not relevant to a *nix chat?

@MichaelHomer If you aren't willing to engage in a discussion, or aren't interested in a discussion, you can ignore it instead of interjecting because you don't like it. I can only see there being a problem if the discussion is beat to death, but that doesn't appear to be the case. So please stop interjecting yourself when someone mentions something you don't wish to discuss.

That is all.

On an unrelated and potentially less controversial note, this is great: contrachrome.com

please take it somewhere that isn't the main room of the site instead of insisting on repeatedly discussing child sexual abuse in here where anyone may come in

What? This is the first time I mentioned that topic or linked any quotes. A topic relevant to FOSS is relevant to this chat room.

I'd appreciate it if you didn't mischaracterize the situation.

@prosody-GabeVereableContext You know, I've seen you in almost every room but I've never seen you talk.

Why do you join so many rooms?

@forest Yo, I remember you, we talked b4:), you might remember from chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/784?m=57204812#57204812 in Crypto room. You asked me a question, but gave me the silent treatment;), did I stun you? There are so many empty rooms, by joining lots I can at least try to be sociable. (I mean, listen/read=quiet/shy behavior. If I'm too talkative, mod judgements get mean, so some self-censorship helps I guess.) Requires eery skill to just find/remember our past chats...
