Face it. He's a try-hard. He calls himself Dr. Stallman despite only having honorary degrees. That would be like Kanye West calling himself Dr Kanye West. But he doesn't because even he knows that's pretentious.
If Kanye West is less pretentious than you, you're doing something wrong.
Stallman is a gargantuan faggot who calls himself a 'doctor' without having gained a PhD, destroys any credibility he has by acting like an ass "I'm not glad he's dead but I'm glad he's gone" and his only real claim to fame is contributing to the creation of Linux.
Without Linus and Linux the GPL and FSF would have faded into obscurity. They only reason anyone pays them any heed now is because of the (negligible) help it gave Linus back in the early days of Linux.
If anything the FSF should rename itself Linux/FSF, simply because the Linux project and Linus are the only reason anyone would pay them any attention now.
Stallman's work is just a footnote in the history of Linus's achievements. He should be grateful for that, otherwise he would be nothing.
Demanding people call Linux GNU/Linux is audacious.
>wrote emacs Contributed to guy steele's TECO macros, later cloned gosmacs, the actual first emacs for UNIX. If stallman wrote emacs, apple is the sole creator of webkit. >wrote gcc and gdb He wrote the C compiler initially, but the vast majority of development for other compilers and the C compiler has came from non-stallman sources.
And he hasn't programmed in years. Stallman is washed up, and his justifications for copyleft are horribly invalid nonsense that would make more sense if they were actual thinly veiled communism instead of selfish ramblings and a desire for a world that catered to his specific social class.
anyone who look up to this twat is an idiot. I like free software but the idea of never using propritary software is litterally impossible for any semi-functioning human to follow

(I know it's ad hominem but you do it first)

Stallsham is the ultimate streetshitter.
Look at the dirty fuck. You know after this picture the 'boys' took him round to the local designated shitting street
Cameron Harris
>Stallman is a gargantuan faggot who calls himself a 'doctor' without having gained a PhD true, but he has been awarded multiple "honorary doctorates" though
So does JK Rowling, but even despite her ground breaking research into Wizards she declines to call herself a Doctor despite her 7 honorary degrees.
Dylan Miller
If I was a prof at MIT I'd call myself doctor
Matthew Thomas
As is your prerogative, but if you only had an honorary doctorate it would be the perogative of everyone else to think you're a pretentious cunt.
He never refers to Linus as Dr Torvalds.
Elijah Wilson
but he's not being awarded a honorary doctorate does not give you the status of professor
Jason Hall
>He never refers to Linus as Dr Torvalds
His entire career is based on taking credit for Linus's work. Why would he change that now?
John Price
He quit his job as prof for the GNU project
Does Linus want to be called that?
Christopher Cruz
You can get honorary doctorates for donating to certain universities. It's universally recognised that if you call yourself a Doctor when you only have honorifics you're attention seeking.
Wyatt Myers
When did he refer to himself as Dr.?
Henry Brown
Linus knows better than to dress himself in borrowed robes.
Chase Bennett
>He quit his job as prof for the GNU project a job yes, but not titled professor
Christopher Campbell
All the time
Brayden Wright
If I were a prof at MIT I'd call myself doctor.
If Linus doesn't want to be called it then don't complain when stallman doesn't call him it.
Speak English, pajeet

>I would call myself a doctor despite not having a PhD or finishing my masters
So effectively all you're telling us is that Stallmanites are as morally bankrupt as their faggot leader? What a surprise.
Michael Cooper
The guy has accomplished more than me or you. Sometimes I judge people who have done more than me, but I don't feel a need to shit talk them...
I usually agree with Stallman but don't actively follow through because that would be impractical. To follow through you have to be an activist, willing to give up convenience.
Still, he's been proven correct time and time again (at least when it comes to computers -- not other things.) And this world would probably be better with more activists. Just not the kind who interrupt traffic.
Please calm down OP, the guy has made mistakes but has generally done good.
Brandon James
Lots of people achieve a lot in the tech world. They don't pretend to be doctors when they're not.
He's a pretentious attention seeker.
Evan Long
Stallmanite damage control. Feel 'free' to kill yourself.
Anthony Parker
He's done more for the compiler and OS field than most people, let alone most PhDs. He definitely deserves his titles. Hell, even his work at the MIT AI lab is enough
Samuel Reyes
Two cups of English Breakfast for this gentleman.
Owen Jackson
>I would call myself a doctor despite not having a PhD
But he has a PhD
Brody Torres
No he doesn't, he couldn't even finish his masters.
Lots of people write compilers. Lots of people were involved in the creation of Linux and Hurd. They don't pretend to be doctors.
>hell even his work at the MIT AI lab is enough
No, if you don't have a PhD you don't get to be called a Dr. Kanye West has the exact same right to call himself a Dr as Stallsham, he doesn't.
If honorifics call themselves Doctors it cheapens the title. He knows this and does it anyway because he loves the attention.
Brandon Smith
>Speak English, pajeet great argument
Oliver Wood
>No he doesn't
Yes he does. He just got it through a nontraditional route. I understand that's hard to understand for a pajeet that went to a Java mill.
Jason Cox
It wasn't an argument. We can hardly understand you.
Kevin Morales
Stallsham does not have a PhD, he couldn't even get a masters.
He loves to call himself a doctor though. Because he's an attention seeker.
How deep down the rabbit hole are you?
Cameron Garcia
>Stallsham does not have a PhD
You're killing me pajeet!
Jose Lopez
>Stallmanite confirmed for being illiterate
What a surprise
Lincoln Sullivan
>claims to be a doctor >couldn't get his masters >too stupid to figure out how to install Linux
Stallmanites are just a cult of personality, right?
Ryder Morales
I don't care very much that rms puts Dr in his email signature, so I will give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he is being cheeky or something.
Jonathan Torres
>I don't care he's a fraud because of funny memes
How's being 12 treating you?
Aaron Lee
Where did he say he couldn't figure it out? The only one too stupid is you.
Michael Williams
You have it backwards. I'm assuming it's something non-serious because I don't care much and don't have much to lose by assuming this way. I'm not not caring because of whatever he might be doing.
Gabriel Kelly
>can't install Linux >demands it's called GNU/Linux >can't get a masters >demands to be called a Doctor
Face it, Stallsham is a fraud and you're just fanboys ignoring reality
Jacob Morris
Oh ok, so because you don't mind Stallsham fraudulently calls himself a Doctor everyone else does shouldn't either?
Yeah don't think that's how the world works Stallmanite. Sorry.
