[GTALUG] The FOSS world's most famous incel is back...

[Russell Reiter]

An incel is a personal self description as involuntary celebate. This is
not at all a linux topic.

How does Evan purport to know Richard Stallman is involuntarily celebate.
That would be the first question to be answered going forward.

Name calling is typically the last resort of ignorance and hardly worth
voting on.

Am I a reactionary incel for calling this out as both off topic linux wise?
and also pointing out that the code of conduct does not explicitly prohibit
reactionary expressionisim.

In the meantime It is also possible to sign the petition as an individual.
