Luke Dashjr is famous for having a very wide array of very-well-documented crazy opinions, where he wants the state to set rules and he will follow them blindly, and therefore it's very believable that he would advocate an OFAC-compliant hardfork. I agree that he's probably not actually seriously considering it, but he has lost credibility through he own arguments over decades.
banning monetary transaction that he doesn't like, such as gambling
women are the property of their husband
death penalty for adultery
everybody should follow all laws (even laws that ban Bitcoin)
monarchy is the best form of government

Luke is incredibly smart, and his engineering skills have helped Bitcoin a lot, and I hope he will continue to contribute and that we can thank him. But he must not be taken seriously as any sort of leader in Bitcoin
