The main developers behind SegWit are willing to pick the most radical activation mechanisms to push their agenda. Imposing re-org risk on a legacy chain without overwhelming consensus makes everyone involved a terrorist.

Not true. Some developers are pushing it yes, e.g. Luke-jr, but remember there are hundreds of core developers. The UA in UASF means user activated. It's the users running the BIP 148 nodes. I'm a user, I'm running a BIP 148 node. I'm also a miner, and I'll be mining on whatever pool allows me to mine BIP 148. Don't blame the dev's.

There's a NY agreement which already involves SegWit AND bigger blocks. Unlike UASF, the NY agreement is backed by overwhelming consensus from all major bitcoin businesses. Any UASF promotion should be stopped right away, yet the promotion is just heating up. If UASF fails, people behind this destructive implementation practice must permanently leave Bitcoin.

I would like to support this NY agreement, even though it is completely against the spirit of bitcoin (closed door secret meetings of the elite). But anyway, until this agreement clearly demonstrates that it will be disabling covert Asicboost attack, I will not support it (and I cannot understand how anyone who is not in the asicboost club would support it - I'll assume you are like me and don't have access to asicboost).
