As a firm supporter of Bitcoin Classic, I am honored to be a moderator of the
official Bitcoin Classic subreddit.
I am however disappointed that smartfbrankings changed my
original sidebar text.

There is only one plausible/parsimonious explanation for such an utter lack of concern about their continual loss of credibility, which is that they are executing a 'thin wedge' strategy.
The Gavinistas would be happy with 1.001MB blocks, because such a hard fork would get their camel's nose into the tent.
The point isn't larger blocks will save Bitcoin from certain dooom, it's to undermine the socioeconomic majority's diverse/diffuse/defensible/resilient system. It's about sending a message, that Bitcoin's engineering decisions can be controlled by manufacturing dissent.
LOL, very true. "Oops, I guess we would've destroyed Bitcoin if the last coup attempt had suceeded. But we definitely have it right this time, promise!"
I hope that they get 75% miner support right away so that I can watch their miners saying, "Oh shit, we just mined a ton of worthless altcoins!".
