Hope this time it's not a fake news and we will see this hard fork.
No, it won't happen on the main nodes. Bitcoin will not change and this fork just like a fud news or the best result will create another altcoin as this proposal is unrelated to the original SegWit2x proposal. I admit people want to see the scale problem finally resolved due to high fees problem and the best hope for now are segwit fully implemented on every wallet and platform and lightning network.
