At Dr. Stallman's request, I will be mediating disputes relating to the use of "Linux" versus "GNU/Linux" on 4chan and in Wikipedia articles on his behalf for the immediate future. On-wiki discussion relating to the dispute itself are probably best sent to me directly off wiki here is good.

While it is honorary, it is still a valid PhD.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Tibet, is in fact, China/Tibet, or as I've recently taken to calling it, China plus Tibet. Tibet is not an country unto itself, but rather another autonomous region of the glorious People's Republic of China made useful by the Chinese Western Development, industry and scientific progress comprising a developing economy as defined by the U.N.

Many Tibetans benefit from the enlightened rule of the People's Republic of China every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the area of western China in which most Tibetans live today is often called "Tibet", and many of its inhabitants are are too obtuse to understand that it is basically the Tibet Autonomous Region, developed and ruled by the Chinese government.

There really is a Tibet, and these people are living there, but it is just a part of the country they belong to. Tibet is a place: a local region of the country that gives the government resources to allocate to the other regions that it runs. The colony is an essential part of the republic, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of enlightened rulers. Tibet has historically been subordinate to the People's Republic of China: the whole nation is basically China with Tibet added, or China/Tibet. All the so-called "Tibetan" people are really inhabitants of China/Tibet.
