sounds speculative at best
the commentary here is not based so much on the how of Dash's communication but the what
saying Einstein was a bad physicist because he was a Jew is complete hogwash, and surely not an argument you would accept? very low standard, even for Lopp, I daresay
You are misstating the argument.
It’s about individual behaviors, not genetics or lineage or even religion.
Luke has a decade and more of unacceptable behavior in this and other projects. Calling into question his ability to lead a project is absolutely valid. It’s not even about nitpicking some IRC comment, it’s year after year of poisonous actions. Even this whole affair is poison that Bitcoin did not need.

not very well versed myself in the typical attacks against the Jews, but for sure the piece discusses religion
For example, he often talks about being a Roman Catholic... but he's not in consensus with what basically everybody considers to be Catholicism
as i said before, woe to me if I should fall out of favour with the high priests of bitcoin

You’re arguing in bad faith and trying to make it a religious thing. I won’t argue anything along the road you are trying to lead.
It’s about a crazy man doing crazy things. Not about religion.

in the first, I said there are false analogies being made of protocol consensus with social consensus. im not defending Dash. Im taking issue with the rhetoric in the article.
just as physics isnt concerned with religion, im not so sure bitcoin is; so it is, I think, with the other social mores that Lopp and you don't seem to like about Dash.
