 So *Stallman* was the one that Epstein was catering to, not the other
way round?

Epstein and Stallman have a lot in common regarding their attitudes toward statutory rape:
* Epstein committed it repeatedly.
* Stallman excused it repeatedly, in his published writings, and in the
   case of Minsky claimed the girl likely wanted it.

How much did Gates give to Epstein, do you think?

Zero as far as I can tell.  Gates was hoping to GET money from Epstein and other rich people, for various philanthropic causes.
Gates publicly apologized for his association with Epstein, and called it 'foolish'.
Stallman has never and will never publicly apologize for his pro-pedophilia statements, his sexual harassment, or his repulsive belief that it's a "disgusting" act of censorship to remove published child sex abuse material from wherever it appears.
Normal people would immediately destroy such things, and jail or kill the abusers.  But not the founder of GuhNoo and creator of the GPL.
How much Epstein money did Stallman accept, do you think?

Like I said before, people who live in glass houses ...

Gates' intentions in his association with Epstein were very good.
Stallman's intentions in his associations with many women were very bad.
Your intentions are very bad.  Detestable really.  Stallman sexually harasses women for years and says he's skeptical of the harm of 'voluntary' pedophilia, and you think you can deflect and demonize Gates for his innocent dealings with Epstein.
