"...principles of liberty in expression and action." It amuses me that you fail to see the irony in your use of that phrase when it comes to RMS being forced to resign for what he said.

Oh yes, in this case liberty would be allowing a man to stay in a leadership position with power over others despite their defiance of his legitimacy.

As we all know, real liberty is when one person has power over others who object to it.

Other people exercising their rights to speech and freedom of association in response to someone's speech is not an attack on freedom of expression.
