As for the poll, I support the right for SegWit2x to exist if people want it to.  I'm not sure if that's what you had in mind for an answer,  though.
I see your point that people treat SegWit2x very strangely and that claiming that SegWit2x somehow shifts power from developers to miners, when in fact that doesn't happen at all, is a strange echo chamber which some people now find themselves in.

However, the poll is about your personal support for SegWit2x, not about its right to exist.
seggy2x is pointless because of BCH.
It's not.  SegWit2x is making a clear effort to work with the same merchants and payment processors that the current main chain already has, and in doing so is not like Bitcoin Cash, which is working similarly to a new altcoin.
since there is no replay protection, I wont even touch that other coin.
If the SegWit2x chain has a significant value, you'd be better off not touching Bitcoin during that period either.
