To understand the toxic bitcoin maximalism, people should study more who start this (long time ago, long before blocksize war): Mircea Popescu. Read his blog http://trilema.com/
Shitcoiners did too much damage to Bitcoin itself and to the entire world. Bitcoin maximalists will always be right, no matter what a shitcoiner would say. Because a bitcoin maximalist always knows the truth.
Be aware that are also many that only pretend to be bitcoiners and even pretend to be maximalists but in fact they are still shitcoiners. Those are doing more damage than good.
The toxicity is a defense mechanism of old bitcoiners, because they are really tired of all the bullshit going on, for so many years. All those new bitcoiners from 2020 class don't know shit about how was to fight shitcoinism all these years... so betr they STFU and learn how to be toxic https://darthcoin.substack.com/p/21-rules-of-a-bitcoin-maxi

Haha, @siggy47 called me a "more friendly Popescu". Still not sure what to make out of it (do I want to be a more friendly Popescu?) but I appreciate the comparison. That was very good feedback about my writing style. :)
And oh, TBM started before the blocksize wars? Interesting. Is Popescu the namesake?

more friendly Popescu"
You are far away from being a "friendly Popescu". Popescu was the ultimate toxicity in Bitcoinlandia. Not even Darth could reach that level. I think I was influenced a lot by his personality in the past. During 2013-2015 I had some private chats with him and I admired him a lot.
Some people even said that I am Popescu, but is not true. I AM NOT MIRCEA POPESCU. Mireca is very well living on an island with McAfee, smoking weed all day and fuck all chicks available,.

If Darth were Popescu, would he tell us? Would Szabo admit he's Satoshi if he was?

Yes, I would say it. But I am not Popescu. As much as many want to think about. Darth is toxic, but Darth is following the natural law. That means truth. I cannot lie.

I still think about your Island story idea(with McAfee too) but I have no energy or inspiration. Maybe @ekzyis will take on the task.

oh maaan... you not even start on that story? Netflix is waiting for...

What do you mean? Which task? Investigation?
reply
No. An idea for a fictional(?) story of Popescu and McAfee still alive and living on an island with many, many, many women.

It's a secret project I propose to siggy. If you look up into out conversation you will find out.

I think Popescu was also way more "toxic" than you—at least currently1. His writing style was way more "in your face".
I kind of don't like the word "toxic" anymore. It doesn't seem to give justice to what I want to describe.

Footnotes

  1. You seem tired. I guess that's (also) what you meant with "I am a bear now" here.

Very few people still understand the toxicity of M.Popescu. He IS a legend! he's not dead

Also appreciate this feedback haha
Popescu was the ultimate toxicity in Bitcoinlandia.
I guess that answers my question about the namesake.
I think I was influenced a lot by his personality in the past.
I think so, too. Did his personality change over time? Your statement sounds a bit like that. Or maybe it's just your English.
reply
You are pulling words out of my mouth.... words that I cannot say.
Did his personality change over time?
NEVER. Popescu was the most toxic ever existed. And his stubbornness was amazing. I myself sometimes I am kind of "soft" on shitcoiners. But maaaan, I was talking in private with Mircea and was damn fucking toxic...
Nowadays we have only "soft" maximalists, that call shitcoiners "altcoiners". Like they were any "alternative". This is fucking nuts. CALL THEM AS THEY ARE: SHIT-COINERS
Why are you censoring yourself juts for the sake of being nice? This is pure madness woke mentality. DISEASE 100%
