> Don't get me wrong, I do think FSF and RMS have been an overall positive by far, but they've also done many remarkably stupid things.
If you agree with everything that another person (or group of people) says or does then:
A) Your being lied to and your falling for it.
The thing about RMS is that he has a vision and he is compelled to follow it. That is a very very much superior approach then 90% of the 'pragmatists' out there that would rather not try anything new, not take risks, and don't want to think for themselves.
Of course he has problems, errors in his logic, errors in his approach, and has personality issues. The flip side is that people that don't have problems, don't have personality issues, and don't make mistakes are people that don't contribute, can't progress, are boring, and worthless as turds roasting on a hot sidewalk.

Not quite sure what the point you're trying to make is... Nobody is cliaming that the FSF is perfect ("an angel") and nobody so far has claimed to agree with the FSF 100%.
By 'pragmatists' do you mean people who disagree with the FSF or GPL? Say, the BSD crew? If so, I certainly don't agree.
Finally, it really sounds like you're saying that people who don't have personality issues are boring and worthless. If so, I don't agree there either!
