I think it inappropriate to insert your own text in a quoted block without making it clear that you're misquoting someone deliberately. Whatever your (provably false with well established psych/sociological research) notions of personal merit vs. wealth, they are not Stallman's: keep them out of the block, or don't pretend it's a quote.

It's a trap!


Ha. Wait!

https://stallman.org/articles/why-we-need-a-state.html

Stallman opines therein:

| Above all, we need a state in order to have democracy, which
| is the system by which the many non-rich [aka beta, weak,
| clueless, stupid, etc] join together to overcome the power
| of the rich [aka alpha, powerful, skilled, smart, etc] and
| thus deny them control over society.

I agree, but only provisionally, and only if the alphas don't control
the state. However, alphas typically do end up controlling the state,
and that's the fatal defect. What's needed long term is conversion of
betas into gammas. With enough gammas, the state will arguably wither
away. But I'll be dead long before then, so I focus on the process.

When I first read it I missed this line

"Copyright (c) 2013 Richard Stallman Verbatim copying and
redistribution of this entire page are permitted provided this

LMAO! unintentional self-parody at its best.

No, he's just saying that he'll track you down and kick your ass if you
fuck with his shit. There's no state required for that ;)
