There is a point which appears to be getting lost in the noise of the Stallman thing which I would like to highlight, in the hopes of helping some reply guys understand why they are receiving such a furious response to what they believe is a principled defense of freethinking and open debate:
The mailing lists where Stallman was making his objectionable posts were mailing lists *for free software projects*. That is to say, they are a *professional context*, for a specific activity.
