Fuck cancer. Get well soon, Richard.
I really hope he gets well.
Why bad things always happen to good people.

While everyone changes the world ever so slightly in their own way, Stallman is one of these individuals that actually affected the entire world through their achievements, changing it for the better. I sincerely hope he continues being there for decades to come. I want to hear him at GNU’s 50th Anniversary!!! Richard, if you’re reading this, I hope you get better. You deserve to live and to promote free software for many more decades!

I hope this fucking legend gets well and keeps carrying on.
RMS! RMS! RMS!
GNU ! GNU! GNU!
Seeing how he looks now is incredibly sad. I really hope he makes it though this.
If you happen to read this, Mr. Stallman, I wish you you a swift and full recovery. We need more in this world like you. Thank you for all that you have done for the world and your tireless advocacy of Free Software!
Gotta say the older I get, the more I appreciate what he stands for. Especially as we spiral toward a dystopian future where privacy is suspect and surveillance is everywhere, FOSS is the only way to retain control over our digital lives.
🫡 stay strong, Mr. Stallman
He looks so smooth. 5 year survival for that is pretty good, and at his age he’ll likely make a good run of it.
One human spirit. Well wishes.
Keep fighting RMS and beat it.
Why would you wanna fight RMS? I mean some of his views are controversial, but he ain’t a bad guy.
lol - gotta keep the man sharp
btw - who downvotes ppl (you + me ) praising a guy for battling cancer, because that’s what it is … Cancer strips us of our humanity - doesn’t matter who you are, it reduces you. And the only way to live is to keep a positive attitude, do everything medicine has to beat it into submission and see that next sunrise.
I have always liked RMS because he praised solutions to problems, hope there is someone else to carry his torch.
We should stop saying that people should fight cancer, since they can’t.
There is nothing a person can do against cancer except do what they’re told by the doctors.

Do you have a cancer? Or are you “a brave hero fighting against the demon foe”? Have you something in your body that needs removing, or are you a heroic victim in a war you may “win or lose”? A poll by Macmillan Cancer Support has found that many people with cancer are fed up with the language of war. They want to be treated like anyone else who is ill. They want to discuss their treatment with a doctor. It is as simple as that.
Anyone with experience of a cancer knows well the lugubrious looks you get. You poor thing. We are so sorry. How long have “they” given you? Be brave. Be positive. Fight back. Don’t give in and “lose”. It suggests you lacked courage and were “beaten”.
I suggest you read the rest of the article since it’s pretty short.

The fighting stance is how I treat all illnesses, it suggests both a need for support and, through discipline and great effort, a path to recovery assisted by our actions.
Fuck cancer. Best wishes to you, Mr Stallman. That is all.
