I know you've been here a long time, but people are allowed to have their own opinions.
The BTC ecosystem can exist just fine with MP, Justus and the crew on this thread. There's no need to ad-hom justus.
I like the effort he's put in to address the issues we discuss here and his wallet report. MP is also a valuable contributor to the BTC economy with his exchange and other BTC related businesses.
Go back to shilling XMR in the alt forum.

I like how you first proclaim "people are allowed to have their own opinions" and four sentences later demand I "Go back to shilling XMR in the alt forum."
I never sought to disallow others from having "their own opinions" but you have fun knocking down that strawman.
Justus started the ad hom with his cheap remote Freudian analysis schtick.
That's a pet peeve of mine, not just because such folk psychology was debunked decades ago but more because trying to pathologize difference of opinion is a hallmark of the Marxist left.
Instead of recognizing MP's legit objections to 20mb blocks, Justus chose to insult our intelligence with asinine psychobabble about "daddy issues" and "cultists."
There's no *need* to turn steer the critique away from MP and back onto Justus, but you must admit the process of doing so is fun when such a rich target volunteers itself.
Justus' code-free naval-gazing speculative effort at designing altcoin parameters is not unique.
What is unique are MP's concrete contributions to Bitcoin and the supporting FOSS ecosystem (WoT, OpenBSD).
The 20mb patch is being called "GavinCoin" because no core dev other than Gavin supports it. It's the Obamacare of Bitcoin updates!
thezerg's FUD WRT 1mb blocks --> fractional reserve banking is ridiculous; you don't seem to be able to grok the implication of real-time audits (even though davout's above quote spells it out in clear, non-obfuscated terms).
