• #OSI vs #FSF modus operandi in a nutshell (similar tricks were used against environmentalist and various civil rights movements, so watch out!!): 1) create a "similar" non-grassroots 'movement' 2) use the media connection to boost it 3) try to get people to defect from those 'extremists' to this 'moderate' new one 4) use the new one to attack the original          ☞
