What utter crap Bit.
While I don't completely agree with some of Stallman's views his work has created an environment which allowed for the creation of a complete free software ecosystem. This free software ecosystem is so powerful that I not only run my business on it exclusively, but it also provides for all of my family's computing needs.
Hardly the results one would expect from a "whacko on the corner".
In fact the object of your worship (Microsoft) understands this and while they may not like Stallman's positions it's a safe bet that they at least respect him as a formidable force in the IT world.
