But people like you need to call out Luke for what he’s doing. You could have agreed with knots, even the anti spam, even BIP 110 but this behavior now needs to be called out by former supporters for what it is. Luke has completely lost the plot and is going about this in the worst way possible. He’s even lying. It is a straight up lie and deception to say that the miners are attacking true bitcoin and acting like BIP 110 is the true chain is a flat out lie. You can’t stand behind someone who is acting like that can you?

I do stand behind BIP 110 idea first. Second try looking from Luke's perspective. Nodes / Node runners are the Bitcoin network, miners are suppliers of valid blocks for that network and nodes verify if blocks are valid. When BIP-110 activated, miners ignored it and their blocks are invalid, BIP-110 nodes reject them. So the BIP-110 network needs new miners. According to Luke that is the real Bitcoin network and I do think that BIP-110 was an improvement in terms of monetary properties and security. Those are the rules of decentralized network. In a centralized network, nodes don't matter and no one needs to run a node. Its all up to the miners.
