So the FSF still seems to be able to find ways to make themselves more loony and fringe. Nice job guys!
Yes, this is pretty pathetic. There are plenty of areas where free software is very important, such as basic computing infrastructure like compilers, operating systems, networking, web standards, and audio/video decoders. But instead they are focusing on the script that makes text blink on some random website.
Javascript is widely used for form validation. It is also more general-public facing than a compiler or any other infrastructure will ever be.
Blinking text? That was mildly funny nearly 20 years ago and didn't require javascript.
