And also, I agree with this:
however, I don't think he is posting in bad faith.
That's the key here. If I thought franky1 was posting about LN topics simply to piss everyone off, I'd absolutely support a ban. But I've read his posts before, and I really think he's posting sincerely and is not trolling.
Right. franky1, from what I can tell, is an OG bitcoiner. I think he probably wants to see bitcoin succeed.
After a number of years of reading franky1's posts, I have come to the conclusion that he believes what he writes. I have posted previously that I do not agree with very much of what Franky says, and I probably would not agree with most of his interpretation of facts, however, I don't think he is posting in bad faith.
If you disagree with what franky1 is saying, I would encourage you to engage in a fact-based discussion with him to try to change his mind. In doing so, you should also be open to having your mind be changed, if a sufficient fact pattern were to emerge.
That sounds great, but was attempted in many topics already. If franky1 would keep his crusade in just one topic, I don't think anyone would complain about it.
franky1 has a particular opinion. This opinion is true for all threads that relate to the subject his opinion is about. There is no reason for franky1 to keep his opinion limited to a certain number of threads just because he disagrees with other forum members.
People disagreeing with you is a part of life. The fact that franky1 disagrees with you, is not a microaggression. You can try to change his mind if you wish.
