Huh? Open source licenses long predate Stallman. He was, at best, an opportunist who tried to coopt the OSS movement and take it into a kooky ideological niche.
Do you remember how the world got all kinds of weird cults before we got good at identifying cults and the phenomenon of cults? Well, the FSF/GPL is one of those. Many people still need to be deprogrammed.
I never said that Stallman invented open source (he didn't) or that his motives for starting GNU up after the Symbolics fiasco were pure and high-minded (they were petty), or that the contemporary FSF is a force for good (it's not, c.f. glibc dynamic link lock in on a backdoored resolver SONAME chain and Drepper's weird ties).
I said he did a lot of foundational work that's still important today.
I acknowledged a contribution, I didn't beatify him.
