Problem is that people actually think that it's 99% vs 98% (not saying you think that) when that's not the case. You have a guy that incited a riot against our democratic process and a guy that kept encouraging unity and actually helped fund infrastructure, local chip manufacturing, renewable funding, etc.

My local mayor wants to increase funding for the public transit, but he didn't say ACAB, so I'm not gonna vote for him even if the other other guy is gonna slash the public transit funding by half 😤😤
OK I see the problem here. When I see the word "minor" I think of a teenager. Usually when someone says minor they mean not-quite-an-adult, not necessarily all people under 18. I don't think your interpretation of DeVault is fair here to be honest.
Stallman said
As an example of exaggeration: one mailing referred to these teenagers as “children”, even the one that was 18 years old. Many teenagers are minors, but none of them are children.
So I believe that he thinks that a "minor" is someone who is below the age of 18. "Many teenagers are minors" meaning not all of them since 18 and 19 year-olds are not minors but the rest are. I think this is a good-faith interpretation of what Stallman means. Stallman also said
In this case, the effect of that mislabeling is to smear Wilson. It is rare, and considered perverse, for adults to be physically attracted to children. However, it is normal for adults to be physically attracted to adolescents. Since the claims about Wilson is the latter, it is wrong to present it as the former.’
Thus, he most likely means that the adolescents he was referring to are minors. Unless he counts 18-25 year-olds as adolescents which is very unlikely in my opinion. Unless something is wrong here with my interpretation, DeVault asserting that Stallman thinks being attracted to minors is normal is a totally reasonable thing to say.
You're right, DeVault probably made a leap in accusing Stallman of describing sex with teenagers socially acceptable. But I can see where he comes from since Stallman is very insistent on the delineation of children and teenagers especially when child sexual abuse cases are in the news.
On the second point, I think he did say that attraction to minors is normal. He defined adolescents as minors before and he's saying attraction to them is normal here.
Examples please
What do you mean?
He said that Stallman had some fucked up views, showed quotes on what his views are, explained how this is a pattern, and finally said why this should make it so that we reject him in the Free Software community.
Which part was the non sequitur?
I think it's Android itself. I can only do symlinks in the /data partition not /storage/emulated according to this. And I tried it and it seems to be true.
` ~ $ pwd
/data/data/com.termux/files/home
~ $ touch ok
~ $ ln ok ok.ok
ln: failed to create hard link 'ok.ok' => 'ok': Permission denied
~ $ ln ok -s ok.ok
~ $ ls
ok ok.ok
~ $ cd /storage/emulated/0
.../emulated/0 $ touch ok
.../emulated/0 $ ln ok -s ok.ok
ln: failed to create symbolic link 'ok.ok': Permission denied
`
I tried it on termux and it says "permission denied", and I have access to write on both folders on termux
That would have been a genius idea actually it would solve all of my problems. However, it seems like Android doesn't allow hard or soft links through SELinux. I tried doing it in termux in root mode but it told me "Function not implemented."
Then I can't see them in the chat since they're in a different location.
Funny thing is that a lot of people actually do give pins and shit. I know more than a few people that straight up gave me their card and the pin number to buy shit when I was a kid.
Besides, giving embarrassing information to a faceless billion dollar company does not feel as bad as giving it to someone who judges you if they find that info embarrassing. It's illogical but that's how a lot of people think.
