I say this time and time again; only listen to people regarding their field of authority. For anything outside the world of software, Stallman's opinions should not be seen any more valid or important than any other person on the internet. We should stick to that more. (What happened/happens due to his position in the FSF is a different topic)
Btw Redhat is working on rewriting code to remove racist trigger words like "slave","master","white list" and "black list". Its crazy efford but I am really happy about that
Calling those words racist is absurd. Especially slave and master. It's literally the function of the device.
