I just read on Slashdot that the famous RMS has now sung something against the prisoners in Guantanamo Bay (no link, I'm not giving it hits). All this while being in **Cuba**, for all heavens, that's not even remotely a democracy. I don't deny the fact that that place may have been ground for abuses, but I find it hypocritical that RMS did that in a place where people are imprisoned on a whim and human rights are not upheld constantly.

But no, facts are too hard to bear. Better to rely on some fundamentally broken ideology (if someone uses Free Software, it's a _friend_, no matter if they imprison innocents and torture them). And this guy should be the head of the Free Software movement? Heaven forbid!
