A federal judge in New York has ordered a vast unsealing of court documents in early 2024 that will make public the names of scores of Jeffrey Epstein's associates.
I don’t see why he wouldn’t want that to be public knowledge. What Epstein did was so awful you really would want to clear your name if you had any connection to the man.
I agree with you, but also I have seen many times how trigger-happy internet crowd may be. Maybe he thinks that nobody will read an explanation past the first word. Or maybe he’s guilty of abuses, we’ll hopefully see
It is freaken Chomsky. Have you heard his name one time? Congratulations, you now have an opinion about him. And said opinion is very very extreme.
The man is either an intellectual titan in a wide variety of fields and the one consistent voice of morality for +60 years or batshit insane impractical plagiarism commiting fraud who thinks the best thing western civilization can do is suicide while leaving an apology note. Nothing in between.

Richard Stallman got cancelled for trying to clear Marvin Minsky’s name. Not only had Minsky himself not actually done anything wrong, but Stallman wasn’t even connected to Epstein except in a “six degrees of Kevin Bacon” sort of way. Yet he got kicked off the Free Software Foundation board for it anyway (at least until ‘truth got its boots on’ and folks came to their senses and reinstated him).
Richard Stallman got “cancelled” because he was sexually harassing everybody with boobs and walking on two legs and had been for decades according to people who dealt with him at work and conferences. Oh I am sorry were you hoping I didn’t know about that?

Wow, yeah, I only heard part of it, think I should go read a bit

That’s how absolutely radioactive this shit is.

You’re not seriously citing Stallman as someone who should be defended, are you?
