Changing the default setting in the face of massive backlash and user exodus is what I mean by forced.
You are arguing semantics now.
Yup now I’m a statist because I don’t want data-storage legal theory applied to Bitcoin by a totally unnecessary and highly contentious default change that is being forced on the network in the face of mass protest. Right.
The bitcoin software is not used for widespread criminal law (cp) breaking as a data storage service until this new proposal of unlimited data relay in Core c30.
Financial regulation violations (shielded by code=speech judgements) are a completely different animal and you know it.
Have fun at court
Oh right now you are “slaying your heroes” because Nick won’t go along with your change?
Wow the cognitive dissonance is unbelievable
None of you "technical" geniuses have explained what exactly is preventing this exact same thing from happening to bitcoin just like it did on BSV with the same code.

We were telling people which transactions are good and which were bad (non-standard) since 2010 you fool
filters dont change consensus.
we cant change consensus every time there is new spam.
that is why we have filters, so they can be updated often.
removing filters is not a good idea. and you wont secceed any of your goals.
I named for you an example like you asked.
The prosperity and wealth of the colonies UNDER THE CROWN- was empirically and objectively NOT due to government, good or otherwise.
In fact, the government in that case was so outrageously bad, and the people courageous enough, that they overthrew it.
So in that case at least you are wrong. Wealth and prosperity of the pre-revolution colonies did not come from government.
USA and its citizens have enjoyed trillions of dollars worth of free goods and services
I AM A "US CITIZEN" AND I HAVE RECEIVED NOTHING FOR FREE EXCEPT THEFT AND ROBBERY AND THREATS TO MY LIFE THANKS TO MY "GOVERNMENT"
You cannot name a single prosperous and secure economy anytime anywhere that was not built upon the basis of good government and until you can your Libertarian nonsense remains a baseless, irrational, naive and dangerous delusion.
Since you are not able to argue terms with me when I clarified that TODAY all over the world, the "basis" of wealth and prosperity is Human Action and NOT the thieving murderous government....
How about a historical example?
Before the revolutionary war in America, the colonies grew and prospered in wealth enough to begin a whole civilization in the New World. Later to become the Union of the United States, these colonies had incredible economic development in spite of terrible government on behalf of the King of England. The government was so poor and anti-productive in fact, that a war was fought to rid themselves of said government.
This historical fact contradicts your statement exactly. Specifically:
"...economy anytime anywhere that was not built upon the basis of good government"
The colonies in America was one such direct example from history.
And again I reiterate to you, ALL wealth and prosperity anywhere on earth today is due to a BLESSED ABSENCE of government, however minor, in which the hard work and intentional action of moral people can operate.
The reason this FREEDOM is so rare, is that the masses of the human race are tricked into believing that government- beyond God's natural law, is necessary. This state of affairs allows the murderous thieving parasite class to elect themselves into positions of power over the people and rob and murder them whenever they see fit.
The brainless masses accept their slavery and even argue with one another defending it.
