Yeah we know, whacko green party leftist Richard Stallman owns more rights to Linux distros than anyone. Why you so strongly support it is the question.

You have no idea what you are talking about. Have you even read the GPL?

You're the one who admitted to lying on purpose for months, defending foreign criminals in fact. Not to mention your constant attacks on Republicans, and even Christians which never ends either. Nothing I've ever done could touch your evil, and never will.

Yes, they are also violating the purity of our precious bodily fluids!

You don’t know anything about stallman if you don’t think he’s a leftist. Go to his website, he links the green party website right across the top.

Due to the large amount of small (and often extremely obscure and used by almost no one) tools owned by the FSF and available in most shovelware Linux distros, Stallman/FSF owns more copyrights by title in such distros than any other single entity. Thus, under this warped accounting method, Sun gives OpenOffice with about 10 million lines of code and it counts as one, the same as a small GNU program that has maybe a few hundred lines of code.

He's gotten better with his claims. A while back he claimed that the FSF holds the copyright to more open source than anyone and they own the copyright on most Linux distro code . I withstood a barrage of insults and libel, and numerous repetitions of these falsehoods, after I showed him he was wrong. It took him quite a while to admit that these statements are false, although he warped them into the technically true but irrelevant claim above so he could claim some sort of empty victory.
