Oh no. Oh no.

I've also seen this in comments:

Yeah his public comments are just the tip of the iceberg. He's been a creep for decades at MIT and wherever he went.

He has a phobia of plants so women at MIT have been using plants defensively: decorating their offices with lots of foliage, wearing plants etc, to avoid getting propositioned or groped by him. Seriously, defensive plants, it's that ridiculous.

After people told him that flat-out propositioning every women within earshot is not acceptable, he started handing out "pleasure cards" (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EEWlJXRWsAASHJw?format=jpg&name=small). Ewww.

It's a travesty that he remained at MIT/FSF this long given dozens of credible cases of abuse.

The person who described Stallman as "the personification of the Free Software Movement" in reference to this bullshit made my blood boil
