2 things - no way in hell richard stallman would create a hackernews account (and definitely not 30 minutes ago).
second - Your attempt at a straw man argument with equitating the vitrio that 4chan generates into something worth defending as freedom of speech in order to discriminate an entire group of the population is absurd.
What 4chan did was pretty much make the equivalent of racial hate speech from the 60's against women. They might as well have told all the female programers to go back to the kitchen and code in there.
You cannot use the constitution to defend hate speech. What classifies as hate speech is open to debate.
