Blockstream/Core Supporters are choosing the Scorched Earth path. They will destroy it all if they can't have it.

Really? Core stays the core all the time.
Scorched earth path fans first had XT. Now they have 'classic'. What is next?

XT had support of the industry but not miners. Now Classic have the support of both miners and the industry. What's next? Core being left out.

Make the lie big, make it simple, keep saying it, and eventually they will believe it

The most brilliant propagandist technique will yield no success unless one fundamental principle is borne in mind constantly it must confine itself to a few points and repeat them over and over ~ Joseph Goebbels

In the primitive simplicity of their minds, they will more easily fall victim to a large lie than a small lie, since they sometimes tell petty lies themselves, but would be ashamed to tell a lie that was too big. They would never consider telling a lie of such magnitude themselves, or knowing that it would require such impudence, they would not consider it possible for it to be told by others. Even after being enlightened and shown that the lie is a lie, they will continue to doubt and waver for a long time and will still believe there must be some truth behind it somewhere, and there must be some other explanation. For this reason, some part of the most bold and brazen lie is sure to stick. This is a fact that all the great liars and liars societies (meaning the Jewish press) in this world know only too well and use regularly. ~ Adolph Hitler
Page 205 Mein Kampf

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State. ~ Joseph Goebbels
