He was unable to suggest any pragmatic alternatives. He just said "I don't own a smartphone", ignoring the fact that many people become very disadvantaged without one.
The real heroes are the people that facilitate alternatives, not those who talk.

Stallman is probably in the top 10 of all time in terms of people who facilitated alternatives to this. He invented the GPL and wrote and maintained a ton of tools for people running alternative software stacks to use. What more would you ask for?

No, you're right. He deserves more credits than that. But still, the idea that you can just expect people to not use a smartphone is wrong.
I've edited my post to not claim that all Stallman did was talk, which would've been wrong.
