It is not only about Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash.
Sure, there are plenty of bitcoin forks out there, but the difference is that none of them pretend to
be BTC like BCash does. Bitcoin Gold, Bitcoin Private, even Bitcoin SV to an extent, present and market themselves as different coins. Even although Bitcoin SV falsely claims to be the original implementation of bitcoin, it doesn't pretend to
be BTC.

Unfortunately, in the substance, BSV is even worse than BCH. They don't claim to be "BTC". They claim that BTC is a scam, there is only one Bitcoin, the one and only Bitcoin is BSV. How far they go turning truth to lies, lies to truth? They present Faketoshi as a reluctant hero, returned to save Bitcoin from the BTC fake-coin scammers. "After a period of denial, Dr. Wright admitted that he is Satoshi Nakamoto" - see below.
BCH is bad enough scam, exploiting Roger Ver registration of bitcoin dot com domain. BSV is badder, bolder, more brazen.
BSV propaganda turns everything upside-down and inside-out. The BSV scammers accuse others of their own wrongdoing. They say that BTC is the scam, BSV is the real Bitcoin by "Dr. Craig Wright a.k.a. Satoshi Nakamoto".note: next activity period begins 2020-12-16T03:40:00Z. After this, I will make Jr. so my embedded images will show! For now, I ask to people >= Jr. Member rank: please Sir, quote me so others can see the important images.
This is cropped from a BSV propaganda image, displayed in full below, I found on the BSV shill thread:
https://i.imgur.com/HUwSXQt.jpgAs you can see, not only it claims BSV is Bitcoin. It claims that BTC is *not* Bitcoin. They say that BSV is the one and only real Bitcoin, on authority of (fake) Satoshi Nakamoto himself.
On the main BSV shill thread on this forum, they also have a small army of sockpuppet shill accounts... who accuse everybody else of being sockpuppet "trolls". I have seen BitcoinFX, Cryptotourist, JayJuanGee, and nullius all accused of being sockpuppets of the same "troll". If o_e_l_e_o posts in that thread, he will immediately be called sockpuppet of nullius, inter alia. It shows the extremes of BSV total inversion of the truth. Same as they do with identifying "real Bitcoin".
The following excerpt from a much longer post was selected carefully by me. Please read it carefully to understand how deeply, subtly insidious this propaganda is. Text size is in the BSV post.

Fraud of the century?This post originally appeared on the Unbounded Capital website https://unboundedcapital.com/blog/fraud-of-the-century and we republished with permission from Jack Laskey.
The degree to which accusations of fraud are flung around the Bitcoin world is disappointing. The price of this confusion will be felt acutely by few, but will impact far more through its delay of a transformative technology’s progress. Unfortunate as it may be, there is no doubt that fraud exists. Of course, scams of various sorts have been a constant feature of the early Bitcoin/blockchain industry, an industry that is very attractive to the “fast money” crowd. But, none of these are the fraud of the century.
There is only one candidate for fraud of the century, and it isn’t Dr. Craig Wright. For those new to this controversy, Dr. Craig Wright is an Australian computer security expert and polymath who was outed at Satoshi Nakamotohttps://coingeek.com/who-is-satoshi-nakamoto/, the creator of Bitcoin, in 2015 by Wired and Gizmodo magazineshttps://gizmodo.com/heres-all-the-evidence-that-craig-wright-invented-bitco-1747059371. After a period of denial, Dr. Wright admitted that he is Satoshi Nakamoto [Suspicious link removed]j.com/articles/craig-wright-says-he-will-prove-he-is-bitcoin-creator-satoshi-nakamoto-1462309228[/url]. However, for a number of reasons of varying feasibility, the broader Bitcoin community rejected his claim emphatically. He is widely believed to be a fraud, and his current focus, Bitcoin SV, an alternative version of Bitcoin which has pivoted back to the original design and away from dominant version BTC, is often labeled a scam.
I’ve made it clear in other writings https://unboundedcapital.com/blog/why-we-think-craig-wright-is-satoshi-and-why-that-matters that I believe the majority is mistaken and that Dr. Craig Wright is almost certainly Satoshi Nakamoto. I see the evidence for dwarfing the evidence against. Further, I don’t see the incentive to perpetrate such a fraud, but I do see the incentive to have taken Dr. Wright’s actions to this point if Dr. Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto. There is historical precedent to this scenario https://equitydiamonds.medium.com/three-wrights-dont-make-a-wrong-a37ea19ed636. When the Wright brothers (not related) invented the airplane, they were widely disbelieved. They used this window to continue building and testing in private while patenting key technologies https://patents.justia.com/assignee/nchain-holdings-limited. Dr. Wright has used this window of disbelief to patent well over 1,000 Bitcoin related technologies. His firm nChain https://nchain.com/ seeks to hold more patents than any company in existence.
Regardless, the magnitude of Dr. Wright’s alleged fraud is pedestrian compared to his counter-accusation. Pretending to be Satoshi Nakamoto is certainly an oddity, especially for such a long time and in the face of such derision https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/bc7j9m/craig_wright_is_a_fraud_hoaxer_a_reminder_for/. And, while the upside of such a fraud for Dr. Wright and his alleged conspirators is unclear, there certainly would be a number of victims who made personal and financial arrangements based on the belief that Dr. Wright would be vindicated in his claim, myself included.
The candidate for fraud of the century is not Dr. Wright but those accusing him of fraud—and not simply because they are likely mistaken.
