whens their next election?
.......
core maintainer.. whens the next election because Wladimir J. van der Laan has been.. to use your own words. dictator for a few years now.
......
reading the articles trainwreck quoted about BU. if looking at the source and reading just one line more then trainwrecks quote contextually limited.. it shows elections happened just a few months later.
the quote about self appointing at the setup of their team being "autocratic about it. I'm defining myself judge, jury and executioner" was a tongue in cheek (comedy sarcasm satire) context
anyway there are many implementations running on bitcoin and bitcoin should stay like that, diverse and decentralised.
trying all these REKT campaigns purely to make core the dictator (reference) is totally the opposite of a divers decentralised network.
wake up and see the big picture and stop kissing just a handfull of corporate devs that move on once their job is complete.
Your argument can only ever boil down to, "Core is a dictatorship and so we must replace it with a new dictatorship". And I don't agree with the former, but I DO agree with the latter in regard to which is a dictatorship.
BU's articles of federation is written in such a way that if you have control of the initial members it then serves only to hold the initial status quo in place. The only other stated mandate is that the current status quo (core) can never be elected.
Its a farce, as is anyone that supports it. Self elected, self imposed rules, and an appointed democracy with the title "freedom". Its a perfect copy of the communist manifesto.
Overthrow the existing rules that keep us free in the name of freedom and give them to a dictatorship for life.
Do you honestly think your response to me will change the blocksize?
