in a different topic doomad show admiration for mandatory dated bans and was very loudly proud of their attempts to kill off 2x

Pretty sure I just said I'm not denying that incompatible nodes were disconnected. Here's the rationale for it.
....
I agreed with it then and I agree with it now.

mmhmm.. u agreed that nodes should be disconnected 3 months BEFORE an activation of those nodes bips
mmhmm.. u agreed that nodes should disconnect BTC1 (Segwit2x) nodes 3 months before segwit2x activates

anyway. im done trying to translate ur flip flops. might be worth u doing some research on what bitcoin is all about and how bitcoin was invented to stay away from needing a "core"
and then maybe finally you can decide if ur a flip or a flop. and atleast stick with one narrative

I asked you to keep it civil, but clearly that's beyond your capability. As with every other time you've spouted your moronic flip flop catchphrase, there is no flip flop. Either you are deliberately conflating unrelated concepts, or you simply don't understand written English very well. My words were as follows:

And, personally, I don't think that I could ever be convinced that it was right to prevent someone from doing it, even if it were possible. Even if I don't agree with the code, it's not my place to tell someone they can't/shouldn't make it.

I'm glad that's not the route we took, but if something similar happened again, I'd still defend their right to do it, even if I was simultaneously saying it was a terrible idea.

In what conceivable way does that have anything to do with my agreement of disconnecting incompatible nodes? Just because someone is free to code it and I will defend their right to code it, that doesn't mean any user on this network is under any obligation whatsoever to accept a connection to one of those nodes if they don't want to. Learn freedom. It's completely irrelevant when 2x was due to activate because it's not a vote. It was never a vote. You do not understand Bitcoin if you think it was a vote. You can code an activation date if you like but no one has to pay the slightest bit of attention to it if they don't want to. Who the hell do you think you are telling us we have to wait until a certain date before we can draw our own conclusions? You can't force anyone to wait for it to activate before deciding. They can decide whenever they like. It's not your decision. The only things you have control over are your private keys, the software you choose to run, any software you choose to create and the blockchain(s) you choose to transact on. That's it. Nothing else. So stay out of other peoples' business, you authoritarian sack of shit. Why is freedom such an ongoing issue for you? How is it beyond your decidedly limited comprehension that users on this network don't have to play nice if they don't want to. Life isn't fair. I would have thought your parents might have taught you that, but at this stage I'll have to assume they abandoned you as a child due to how much of a colossal disappointment they somehow knew you'd turn out to be.
