Not that it matters as you don't care - your ideas are more important than the consequences for other people of your ideas.

Actually, take heart. Society has decided that our view is more important than bitcoin2cash's views.

Don't kid yourself. Most people simply allow the current system to propagate itself without actually actively examining and deciding that it is what they want. Have you ever seen how Americans vote?

I'm well aware of all that you mentioned. Just because my views are often nearly opposite bitcoin2cash's does not mean my views are not well thought out or absent of independent thinking.

I never said they were. I'm simply pointing out it's not very accurate to say "society has decided" when most of society doesn't give a fuck. I guess you could define "decided" to also mean "absence of a decision" because you could decide by not caring. I suppose.

If a majority of society actually got off their asses, thought for themselves and did some critical thinking, who knows what they would actually decide? I just don't think humanity operates that way. There's usually a powerful minority that free-rides off of the passive acceptance of the vast majority.
