Re: why isn't stallman on lp2022 speakers list?

[Lori Nagel]

   Don't get me wrong.  I'm not in any way anti-RMS, but the free software
   movement needs to be about freedom respecting software, and not hero
   worship (whether that person is RMS or some other "hero")  Long term,
   what are we going to do, the whole trans-humanism thing where we
   worship a "computer" who is encoded with the "flawed" personality of a
   dead person?

   I agree with this, I think the question should be well analyzed, even.
   Many people signed up, took the time and filled out the form to
   participate in LibrePlanet 2022 as speakers, including me. It is not
   fair to those who prepared and filled out the form before, the deadline
   has passed and it was very well publicized by the way.
   Also, we should pay close attention before saying something like "we or
   X people (or community) need this". I respect the RMS just as I respect
   and treat anyone well, but I think you should note that the people who
   are going to speak are also leaders and no one is leading above anyone
   else. We all follow the same philosophy, and I respect everyone's
   opinion on the matter and show my disagreement on the issue
   respectfully
   here.
