the audacity

Does the fact that there are lots of retards make the retards any less retarded?

This is the kind of behavior people ruined my life over as a teenager on reddit But Will does it as an adult and gets zaps and opensats funding

No. Ad populum fallacy. But Will's "doubling down" isn't on the legitimate opinion part, it's on the aggressive dickhead part. Someone unfollow and he's like "I don't even know who you are" (saw this in exact words)

Step 5 incoming

Based on the number of people defending Core, I suppose not. If there's one thing I've learned from Bitcoin, it's that all human behavior is driven by incentives. The devs apparently stand to profit greatly (in fiat) from these changes. The plebs defending them, at their own destruction, are mere sheep who follow their team uncritically. "Wide is the road to destruction, and many follow it. Narrow is the path to life, and few find it."

Ego.

its called standing up for your principles when everyone has lost their mind

I dealt with this kind of mob mentality during covid, same NPC behavior

In this comment, you dehumanize the people that disagree with you.
