What level of cope is this?
Discussion
All I could read is, 'we're losing and we know it, so let's go _ad hominem_ --oh and sprinkle in some charges of antisemitism for kicks because why not'
When I saw this statement I decided to finally look into the core/knots thing deeper last night. Serious red flag for me due to the appeal to authority/ad hominem
Trust the science
Hubris maxing
You know you completely gave up when you resort to ad hominem attacks. Pathetic and childish.
Who wrote this? Iโm still undecided but the main thread running through the whole thing is how condescending the core side has been while some simultaneously being very bad at explaining their position in a way people can grok
They don't have a valid argument because the reality is they were paid to make spamming easier and that's the only reason this is happening. They tried to put lipstick on a pig, making it seem like they were solving a super important technical issue, and when node runners didn't buy it they turned hostile to their own user base. I don't think an open source project has ever imploded so spectacularly.
Iโm not convinced thatโs true though. I still think they could be correct but awful at communicating why.
Destroyed reputation level.
Big oof
This is an ad hominem attack with no actual arguments. You can tell by re-reading this and replacing the words โknotsโ and โcoreโ and hear the exact opposite message.
I had totally forgotten that trick for identifying ad hominem and it is a useful tool ๐ค๐ผ
Cope is off the charts
Highly regarded
I may be on the other side of this debate, but bitpaine is among the most insufferable people in bitcoin. He doesn't seem to be particularly knowledgeable and hides his ignorance behind snarky insults.
I gave up when he started simping for the IRS regarding Roger. Crab in a bucket.
leave muh frens at Core alone
Why worry about the substance of the debate? Just trust the science.
A desperate one.
Sounds like a similar argument I have heard about democrats being the educated ones and republicans being less educated. As I previously mentioned, seems like an open border policy for bitcoin that core wants to implement. Would you say open borders turned out well for America?
I'm not on X, and I don't know anything about the author; but, it's easy to interpret such an obviously over-the-top take as intended to simply be sarcasm.
Up and to the right, just like the knots charts. Get wrecked.
