I was surprised to read this apparently coming from Enrico, particularly
since it doesn't seem consistent with what Enrico has said in other
threads regarding RMS. It turns out not to be signed with the same key.

<https://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2021/03/msg00286.html>, matching
Enrico's key in the official Debian keyring:

Key fingerprint used to sign the message to which I'm replying:

It seems highly likely that the message to which I'm replying was not
sent or authorized by Enrico, and that its sender is trying to mislead
Debian members by impersonating a prominent and respected developer.
I don't think passing off a message as coming from a different author is
consistent with taking any sort of moral high ground (for example based
on a position of free speech, meritocracy or opposing "cancel culture")
and I'm disappointed to see it on Debian mailing lists.
