What Hacker News says

Hello Contributors, *RMS* may not conform to your societal standards, but condemning the man (him, or Torvalds, who also comes under fire,) marrs your reputation, and not his. > He has shown himself to be misogynist, ableist, and transphobic, among other serious accusations of impropriety. I have met RMS in person, (had Chinese food with him, in fact,) and though he may ignore some social conventions, he is a person who has very valuable and unique opinions, and a force to be reckoned with. These accusations appear to be, while not baseless, motivated by an extremely twisted socio-political ideology. *Shame on you for bringing cancel culture into the world of software.* https://github.com/rms-open-letter/rms-open-letter.github.io...
