Topic: Analysis and list of top big blocks shills (XT #REKT ignorers) - page 44. (Read 46564 times)

They already tried that.  It was, as (former?) huge block shill smoothie put it, "a miserable failure."

So now they are back to talking.  They can't do anything else.

Lord Satoshi has blessed us with such wonderful lolcows, so that we may be amused by their moos and bovine antics.

After the failure of XT Gavin moved to "Bitcoin Classic" and he calls it the vision of Satoshi.

Well, it's a fucking honor to be included.

Edit: I seem to be the last one to get the memo nowadays, but... is Theymos a Front National supporter as well?

Bloody hell. A trio of French fascists. What were the odds? Honestly. Thanks Blockstream!

To be fair we hate fat people too.

ie rascist fascists

swell

a win for bitcoin

"The National Front is a socially conservative, nationalist political party in France. Its major policies include economic protectionism, a zero tolerance approach to law and order issues, and opposition to immigration." Oh! Lovely.

Is this genuinely true? I've seen iCEBREAKER wear the Front National logo as an avatar, but are all three of them?

Yes. They represent the Front National. They are fulltime statists/fascists/National collectivists. (hdbuck, iCE, brg444)

God damn, you can't even meme correctly.

Ok, then. BW and Antpool supports Bitcoin Classic. Guess this discussion will be redundant soon.

  I think i'll stick with Satoshi's vision.  hint:  Bitcoin started with 32MB blocks.
1MB was intended to be a temporary spam measure.


qntra eh?

That was an attempt at mockery, seeing as people like hdbuck, icebreaker and a few of the other hardcore MP fanboys seem to enjoy calling everyone with even the slightest left-wing leaning a statist.  And the jab remains that I still respect the free market more than fake libertarian pretenders like them. 

Which is the more authoritarian attitude in your mind?

a) Unilaterally changing network parameters is a threat to the network and should be derided / ridiculed / dismissed / etc.

or

b) Any user can unilaterally change any network parameters as they wish because it's an open and permissionless system.

I'm of the opinion that hdbuck's view, "a)", is authoritarian.  My view, "b)", is the complete opposite of authoritarian.  Thus concludes another edition of "why do I always have to spell it out for people like they're not all there upstairs?"   

d'oh!

I  do apologise - genuine mistake. I will update that post now.

I could say many things about you, but bigot would not be one of them...

There is no evidence, I was simply pointing this out, it is an exercise in futility.

This is why I put it into quotation marks. There certainly are conspiracies and valid theories about conspiracies, the term is often misconstrued to mean what you are referring to, however i did intend to use this word in the negative sense, since you are formulating a conspiracy theory without evidence, it is better to focus on conspiracies that you can prove if that is where you want to direct your energy.

Apophatic inquiry? Like deductive reosoning right? You would still not be able to proof that I am a shill based on that method of inquiry, because there is no evidence. I suppose I prescribe more to rationalism in terms of epistemology.

First of all you are quoting a very old post, we have several alternatives now so what I said there about BIP101 is no longer relevant, I support Bitcoin Unlimited myself presently for a two megabyte blocksize limit.

Just because I know how the state is justified it does not mean that is my position on the subject. You need to understand something before you can criticize it, after all.

If you have studied political philosophy you would know that this is how the state is often justified. Think of Thomas Hobbes Leviathan and his state of nature, or John Locks response in his treatise on government. Further on in John Stuarts Mills writings On Liberty. The idea is that government always represents a sacrifice or compromise of our freedom, philosophically the only form of governance which has true freedom is anarchism. I understood this before I discovered cryptocurrency. I still think that good government is possible, its just that it requires a highly enlightened civilization and culture in order for it be functional. Cryptocurrency has changed my ideological objective you could say since it has made possible what was previously impossible, in regards to political theory.

This has changed my ideology over the last year, so I presently describe myself as a crypto anarcho libertarian. The goal is anarchism (freedom), this possibility is enabled through crypto (technology), and the practical strategy is libertarianism where we shrink the government down over a long period of time until it possibly ceases to exist completely, most likely in more then a century from now.

I would further add that it is actually irrelevant what my own personal political philosophy is in regards to this discussion.

Yet you are the the one attempting to dehumanize me.

Yep, which would be part of the agenda itself: to make it seem as if there is a contentious debate and that this contentious debate is being censored.


And this is why you are called a liar. The Core people do believe (understand) that Bitcoin needs to scale (hence, you know, the Scaling Bitcoin conferences?), just not in the discredited reckless ways you insist on baselessly continuing to promote, while ignoring all new information and arguments thrown at you.

The "impending sense of doom lately" comes from the XT people who falsely insisted that there is an urgent need to increase the max block size. Quoting iCEBREAKER's brilliant observation again, "Their Big Lie is that Bitcoin was created to replace commercial banking, not central banking (as if the Genesis Text was about $2 ATM fees instead of TBTF bailouts)." The people behind it happen to be committed statists (believers in "authority" and collectivism and moral relativism).

Ooooohhh, so shocking that no censorship is applied to free speech but discernment of dishonest shills is. This PC mentality you espouse is what every single authoritarian control system requires to get anywhere at all. It's very interesting how you are substituting "hooligan" for "Nazi", but that's what your German unconscious mind is thinking, isn't it? Just for the fun of it and to keep it short, I'll say this one time: Almost everything you have been told about WWII is a lie. I think you, as with many Germans today, have been indoctrinated into always trying to be so over-the-top "nice" ("tolerant") to people that you are easily taken for a ride by anyone pretending to be nice.


So you openly admit that you're a statist (i.e. an involuntaryist, an advocate of slavery), but you call other people "authoritarian" WTF?


Wow, this is clear proof of sAt0sHiFanClub's dishonesty. Compare his post to my original post here.

You can be damn sure if this private company started doing something the miners didn't like it would be replaced, probably within one or two days.  As I understand it, the code is all open source and it's just a matter of running similar code at new data centers and then reconfiguring some IP addresses in .conf files.

blunderer is a bigot? Who knew....

Can't belive this thread is hotter than that Wall observer thread

Yes, it's being discussed despite the best efforts of some to prevent it.  There's nothing premature whatsoever about my statement.  There is a clear and concerted effort being made to sweep certain ideas under the carpet as they're somehow perceived as dangerous to the status quo.  And people on both sides are repeating disproven and dishonest arguments.  There are still people referring to alternative clients as altcoins when this is fundamentally misleading, or insinuating that releasing a client that proposes a change to the protocol is tantamount to an act of sedition.  This is entirely at odds with an open source project where anyone is free to modify the code as they please.  It's also unfounded to claim that anyone who disagrees with your view must somehow be brainwashed by the mainstream media.
