@szam @Siphonay the joke targets anti-abortion people. no one is offended by the joke, as best as I can tell -- the main issue here is rms unilaterally overriding the consensus for its removal as non-crucial
the entire "joke" is that the function is called abort() and whether users should be able to decide not to "abort" a process

@szam @Siphonay well... it's not strictly relevant to the documentation, at least? if I were voting, I'd say to keep it because it's not a bad joke. I don't think the humor is out-of-line; it might add some flavor if I were reading the docs. but its addition or removal tells me nothing about how the program works.
