There has been a lot of rapey dad jokes lately . <| sep |> Aw man , that ' s too bad if it ' s deleted . <| sep |> For those of us that have been on this side of the fence from the first day theymos notably started censorship , it has become blatantly clear that the autocrats of BScore have no intention of raising the blocksize . This reminds me of earlymid 2014 . At the time , Blockstream hadn ' t been announced publicly yet , but Greg Maxwell , Adam Back , Mark Friedenbach and Jorge Timon were on BCT unashamedly bashing Counterparty to no end , claiming it could never scale , and you should use a sidechain for this . Indeed , Greg Maxwell . Indeed . Most people who have been in Counterparty since the beginning knew BlockstreamCore ' s true colors , it ' s just that up until 2015 Blockstream ' s political platform was only discriminating against minorities . Now that they ' re discriminating against the majority of users , completely different story . It ' s amazing to see how long they ' ve lasted . You guys really need to step it the fuck up though , because BlockstreamCore are a bunch of extremists and they ' ll never compromise . This has been obvious since mid 2014 , and possibly even earlier than that .
