Care to explain how am I still influenced by them?
Do you even know how long ago I was orangepilled or are you just forcing your own blinded narrative anyway you can?
Your sense of entitlement and ad hominem attacks is in very poor taste.

Don't take DarthCoin's jabs personally. He is hardcore bitcoin, thus the vader reference in his nym.
Having to defend bitcoin gets tiring, and even though bitcoin doesn't really need defending, working to educate people about it and having to answer the same questions and objections over and over can lead a maximalist to look for something that is more echo-chamberish. Hoping for a public platform like SN to be that echo chamber is probably misplaced. SN is intended (I think) to be that sword edge to slice through lies and ignorance for those seeking the truth.
Darthcoin has explained himself many times, that he was never a shitcoiner, and therefore has no empathy for those repeating the objections against the design decisions and optimization for decentralization that were made by Satoshi himself. To attempt discussions about these topics, revisiting the block size/time debate years after its been settled by the market should bring with it an expectation you will be confronted. For the moment, its a horse long dead.

None of that relates to "being a hardcore bitcoiner" or "defending bitcoin". He's just being a douche.
No one here attacked bitcoin.
I don't take any of it personally, I just criticize that kind of nonsense, he can either take it or leave it.

He is using one of your posts as an example, but its probably not a good one. There are lots of discussions here about blocksize and blocktime, and he seems to respond forcefully to almost each one. Agreed, he tends to come across as a dick or a douche, but as Saylor says this is a necessary service to enable adoption.

Where? I specifically asked in my original reply for stuff like that and was instead given an ad hominem attack.
I only found this:
Which is from last year. So 1 post in 2 years that respectfully asks about blocksize is the real basis for the tons of block size debates on SN?

I'm fine with being toxic to scammers and shitcoin shills, that is a white blood cell response. That is totally different from attacking other bitcoiners or even noobs without apparent reason.
Claiming that is a "necessary service" is disingenuous.
Also, I couldn't give a single fuck about who DarthCoin is or what is personality is like on Tuesdays. In bitcoinland everyone is an equal pleb. If he is expecting some kind of special treatment or seigniorage then he should shill fiat or other random shitcoins instead.

All right then
