Above 13 they’re teenagers developmentally, even if they’re legally minors. I’m not saying adults should have sex with them, but they’res a clear difference between a 4 year old and a 15 year old.
I haven’t read all of that, but I agree with most of it. No one should have sex with a non consenting partner, but there is a real pattern in society where people want to exaggerate sexual misdemeanours that people have done and call it pedophilia or sexual assault, as a sort of clickbait, when it is in reality more minor. I am also against other forms of clickbait or dishonest attention grabbing tactics, to remain consistent.
And other people see any criticism of the rapidly expanding sphere of things which get categorised as sexual crimes as siding with abusers, rather than a more thoughtful approach.
Didn’t he changed his mind after learning it wasn’t okay?
It’s importan to remember that Stallmen only considers people up to the age of 13 children.

Yeah, but pair it with the exact wording of how Stallman walked back the paedophilia comment:
