The discussion period is over. Everyone should indeed vote responsibly and thoughtfully, which, being a democratic process, means they should vote for what *they* believe in, not what you or anyone else thinks.

Adults' vote would hardly be motivated by reverse psychology
(e.g. voting against "what I think or anyone else think").

But it is worth remembering that to cancel someone's life mission is nothing less than an expressed death (non-existence) wish.

Writing non-free software is not an ethically legitimate activity, so if
people who do this run into trouble, that's good! All businesses based
on non-free software ought to fail, and the sooner the better.

FSF board also followed some process but some people are trying to
remove entire board now.

If some other organiztions who use tools from Debian - demand similar
things for Debian DDs who voted against them !

Indeed.

How could you consider that you are actually asking anyone to vote
responsibly when you are trying to present them with the idea that
voting options you dislike is not responsible?

Your sense of democracy raises questions.
