It has to be. RMS browses the internet by e-mailing a remote machine that wgets the page and e-mails it back to him, then views it in lynx so that JavaScript doesn’t run. There’s absolutely no way in Hell he’d be on corporate social media.
I’ve seen a lot of FOSS purists before, but this guy has gotta be the Linux equivalent of one of those dudes who lives in the forest with a tin hat so the guberment can’t read his thoughts.
What makes you think the fake screenshot is Mastodon? I don’t use it so I don’t know about fonts and colors and margins matching up, but I’d at least expect there to be an instance name attached to the username.
Also, RMS is certainly not the kind of guy to use social media at all, libre and federated or not.
The page behind your link above actually solves the riddle in question:
I have a Mastodon account, @rms on mastodon.xyz, which mirrors the political notes of stallman.org. The person who set up the mirroring chose that site.
The profile picture and colour scheme fits. I’m guessing just the text is edited.
Is this an April Fools joke?

Welp, that’s embarrassing for me. Good catch!
Everyone knows that transwomen prefer Rust due to its borrow checker which ensures memory safety without the overhead of garbage collection.
It’s just basic biology, how do people not know this?
Trans men on the other hand prefer Haskell, top biology professors are dumbfounded!
I would have thought transmen would prefer Python.
Yes, and that’s why the professors are scratching their heads.
What does it mean if one likes both?
Gender fluid
Oh, those biology professors and their pet slimes…
Not every trans woman tho
Look at those numbers to get your answer.
Yeah, but it’s true. What if?
