Richard Stallman 被迫辞去 FSF 主席的职务

Stallman 事件的背景概述
如果你不知道这次事件发生的前因后果,请看本段的详细信息。
Richard Stallman,66岁,是就职于 MIT 的计算机科学家。他最著名的成就就是在 1983 年发起了自由软件运动。他也开发了 GNU 项目旗下的部分软件,比如 GCC 和 Emacs。受自由软件运动影响选择使用 GPL 开源协议的项目不计其数。Linux 是其中最出名的项目之一。
Jeffrey Epstein(爱泼斯坦),美国亿万富翁,金融大佬。其涉嫌为社会上流精英提供性交易服务(其中有未成年少女)而被指控成为性犯罪者。在受审期间,爱泼斯坦在监狱中自杀身亡。
Marvin Lee Minsky,MIT 知名计算机科学家。他在 MIT 建立了人工智能实验室。2016 年,88 岁的 Minsky 逝世。在 Minsky 逝世后,一位名为 Misky 的爱泼斯坦事件受害者声称其在未成年时曾被“诱导”到爱泼斯坦的私人岛屿,与之发生性关系。
但是这些与 Richard Stallman 有什么关系?这要从 Stallman 发给 MIT 计算机科学与人工智能实验室(CSAIL)的学生以及附属机构就爱泼斯坦的捐款提出抗议的邮件列表的邮件说起。邮件全文翻译如下:
周五事件的公告对 Marvin Minsky 来说是不公正的。
“已故的人工智能 ‘先锋’ Marvin Minsky (被控告侵害了爱泼斯坦事件的受害者之一[2])”
不公正之处在于 “ 侵害 ” 这个用语。“ 性侵犯 ” 这个用语非常的糢糊,夸大了指控的严重性:宣称某人做了 X 但误导别人,让别人觉得这个人做了 Y,Y 远远比 X 严重。
上面引用的指控显然就是夸大。报导声称 Minksy 与爱泼斯坦的 女眷 之一发生了性关系(详见 https://www.theverge.com/2019/8/9/20798900/marvin-minsky-jeffrey-epstein-sex-trafficking-island-court-records-unsealed)。我们假设这是真的(我找不到理由不相信)。
“ 侵害 ” 这个词,意味着他使用了某种暴力。但那篇报道并没有提到这个,只说了他们发生了性关系。
我们可以想像很多种情况,但最合理的情况是,她在 Marvin 面前表现的像是完全自愿的。假设她是被爱泼斯坦强迫的,那爱泼斯坦有充足的理由让她对大多数人守口如瓶。
从各种的指控夸大事例中,我总结出,在指控时使用“ 性侵犯 ”是绝对错误的。
无论你想要批判什么行为,你都应该使用特定的词汇来描述,以此避免批判的本质的道德模糊性。
“清除 Stallman” 的呼吁
‘爱泼斯坦’在美国是颇具争议的‘话题’。Stallman 对该敏感事件做出如此鲁莽的 “知识陈述” 不会有好结果,事实也是如此。
一位机器人学工程师从她的朋友那里收到了转发的邮件并发起了一个清除 Stallman 的活动。她要的不是澄清或者道歉,她只想要清除斯托曼,就算这意味着 “将 MIT 夷为平地” 也在所不惜。
是,至少 Stallman 没有被控强奸任何人。但这就是我们的最高标准吗?这所声望极高的学院坚持的标准就是这样的吗?如果这是麻省理工学院想要捍卫的、想要代表的标准的话,还不如把这破学校夷为平地…
如果有必要的话,就把所有人都清除出去,之后从废墟中建立出更好的秩序。
—— Salem,发起“清除 Stallman“运动的机器人学专业学生
Salem 的声讨最初没有被主流媒体重视。但它还是被反对软件行业内的精英崇拜以及性别偏见的积极分子发现了。
#epstein #MIT 嗨 记者没有回复我我很生气就自己写了这么个故事。作为 MIT 的校友我还真是高兴啊? https://t.co/D4V5L5NzPA

是不是对于性侵儿童的 “杰出混蛋” 我们也可以辩护说 “万一这是你情我愿的” https://t.co/gSYPJ3WOfp

多年来我就一直发推说 Richard RMS Stallman 这人有多恶心 —— 恋童癖、厌女症、还残障歧视
不可避免的是,每次我这样做,都会有老哥检查我的数据来源,然后说 “这都是几年前的事了!他现在变了!”

下面是 Sage Sharp 开头的一篇关于 Stallman 的行为如何对科技人员产生负面影响的帖子:
?大家说下 Richard Stallman 对科技从业者的影响吧,尤其是女性。 [例如: 强奸、乱伦、残障歧视、性交易]
@fsf 有必要永久禁止 Richard Stallman 担任自由软件基金会董事会主席。
— Sage Sharp (@sagesharp) September 16, 2019
Stallman 一直以来也不是一个圣人。他粗暴,不合时宜、多年来一直在开带有性别歧视的笑话。你可以在这里和这里读到。
很快这个消息就被 The Vice、每日野兽,未来主义等大媒体采访。他们把 Stallman 描绘成爱泼斯坦的捍卫者。在强烈的抗议声中,GNOME 执行董事威胁要结束 GNOME 和 FSF 之间的关系。
最后,Stallman 先是从 MIT 辞职,现在又从 自由软件基金会 辞职。
危险的特权?
我们见识到了,把一个人从他创建并为之工作了三十多年的组织中驱逐出去仅仅需要五天。这甚至还是在 Stallman 没有参与性交易丑闻的情况下。
其中一些 “活动家” 过去也曾针对过 Linux 的作者 Linus Torvalds。Linux 基金会背后的管理层预见到了科技行业激进主义的增长趋势,因此他们制定了适用于 Linux 内核开发的行为准则并强制 Torvalds 接受培训以改善他的行为。如果他们没有采取纠正措施,可能 Torvalds 也已经被批倒批臭了。
忽视技术支持者的鲁莽行为和性别歧视是不可接受的,但是对于那些遇到不同意某种流行观点的人就进行声讨,施以私刑也是不道德的做法。我不支持 Stallman 和他过去的言论,但我也不能接受他以这种方式(被迫?)辞职。
Techrights 对此有一些有趣的评论,你可以在这里和这里看到。
你对此事有何看法?请文明分享你的观点和意见。过激评论将不会公布。
