BCH is a metaphor.

Ussle Craig's coin

Don’t even mention the fork of the fork πŸ˜‚

It's forks all the way down

Go fork yourself πŸ˜‚

Every 'upgrade' (segwit, taproot) is a fork, implemented whether you like it or not.

yip

Read the Bitcoin whitepaper and Satoshi's emails & blogposts.

Things never mentioned:

SegWit, Lightning, TapRoot.

Things that were mentioned:

Simplified Payment Verification (SPV).

Nodes run by large entities, like businesses & colleges.

Bigger blocks to scale.

are you a Satoshi Vision guy?

Not particularly, but I am a KISS fan, and critical thinker.

BCH works.

Bitcoiners prefer UASF because they believe they have a vote. Yet, none of them remember 'voting' for lightning, ordinals or Tether. They only know how to continue to upgrade their nodes (oh yeah, very few run nodes) and accept the updates as if they were delivered by God, and not a handful of developers working for people who are heavily influenced by money from Blockstream, Blackrock, Tether, and very likely with strong influence from the CIA.

They believe liightning is amazing (again, maybe 2% run nodes), but that it's entire structure, with coming regulations, entirely mirrors the current banking system. Wow! What a win for being bankless!

From a principled standpoint, it's laughable, but humans are humans and human nature has a tendency to follow blindly.
