Stallman - I understand the hatred for the FOSS community
I see wonderful, articulate posts from tech industry leaders and free software contributors about why RMS had to resign and why he has done untold damage to the free software community.
Then I see hundreds of comments on those posts howling in anguish over the SJWs ruining tech and driving Stallman out, and all these diversity policies that are terribly unfair to men.
Maybe we need to burn the whole industry to ashes and start over. 😢

A lot of strike etiquette has been lost as union power waned. But workers are uniting again, and we have to learn what's been forgotten.

Wall Street is telling the same lies about striking GM workers that it told in the past.
Let's be smarter than the politicians who eroded collective bargaining laws.
Please show solidarity for the #UAWStrike #GMStrike!

News organisations constantly report on how "the poor are getting poorer and the rich are getting richer" as if these are contradictory events. They are not.

The South isn’t some endless wasteland of hyperconservative hicks. It’s large swathes of marginalized and often very radical people being repressed by far-right States which perpetuate themselves by disenfranchising most of their subjects.

Be a pronoun professional in three easy steps:
1) Add your pronouns to your profile. If you don't want to say or don't mind what pronouns people use for you, consider noting that instead so people know what's what.
2) Discover and use the pronouns people have in their bios before interacting with them.
3) If you don't know their pronouns default to they/them and don't presume anything.
PHILOSOPHY TIME!
To finish, a reminder of the distinction between validity and soundness:
A valid argument is one where the conclusion *must* follow from the premises. For instance, this argument we looked at is valid as it's a simple "If A, then B. A, therefore B" argument.
A *sound* argument is a valid argument *where all the premises are true*. This argument, then, is unsound as premise 1 is *definitely* false, and premise 2 may or may not be true.
PHILOSOPHY TIME!
The more contentious is premise 2. Without a proper background in philosophy of art (something I don't have), we can't really deeply analyze this premise, but we can say this: for most people, this is a matter of personal taste. For instance, I personally disagree with this. I think that, for instance, Forces, Unleashed, and Colors are all good games. You may disagree. But to treat premise 2 as an objective truth? It's absolutely ridiculous.
PHILOSOPHY TIME!
Let's start with the less contentious of the unsound premises: premise 1
People are fans of bad things all the time. Take, for instance, Wiseau's "The Room". It is, by all accounts, a bad movie. Poor writing, poor acting, &c. However, there is a not-insignificant number of people who'd consider themself a fan of the movie, in spite of this. *Just because something is bad, doesn't mean you can't like it.*
PHILOSOPHY TIME!
So, we can break this down into a simple argument:
P1) If something isn't good, then you can't be a fan of it
P2) Sonic isn't good
C1) Therefore, you can't be a fan of Sonic
This is a valid argument, I will grant. However, it is *horribly* unsound.
