BLGP EP 257: #MeToo, RMS?

In this (sure to upset everyone everywhere) installment of BLGP, we talk some serious details about the recent ouster of FOSS pioneer (inventor of GNUutils) Richard Stallman from MIT. Is this the beginning of a new era in which being a little weird, a little old, and a little "alleged" is enough to have you and your work forever excised from common memory? Is that fair? Is it unfair? What would make it fair? These, and other (absolutely depressing and dark) reflections AND MUCH MOAR!
