It's become popular virtually everywhere among crypto users to call Bitcoin (cash) a shitcoin, make fun of it, call it a stupid choice, etc. Obviously, it's always among people who are unable to think for themselves, but that's the majority of the population. They simply take the popular thoughts that are floating around - without doing any rational / logical thinking and research on their own - and spew it out because it's better to be on the side of popular opinion than to be seen as an outcast (it's scary unless you fit in with the rest of society).
I think it's safe to say that censorship, lies, propaganda and manipulation have already won. Core has successfully brainwashed the mindless masses to attack and discredit the original Bitcoin technology. And to blindly support something that simply does not and will not work as a Person-to-Person currency. P2P being the entire point of crypto in the first place. The majority of people don't understand the power of P2P, they just take and do what they're told by their authoritative rulers (who are the ones that are in danger of widespread P2P cash).
The institutions hated Bitcoin from the very beginning. They planned their attacks carefully and executed them well. Bitcoin is dead. They've already won. For Bitcoin to be successful, it needs popular opinion and widespread adoption. That's almost impossible now considering it's become the popular mindless idiot opinion to bash it and attack it --- any naive newcomers hear the sentiment and automatically stay away from it, lest they become a social outcast for siding with unpopular opinion. So it's best to stay with Bitcoin Core despite the fact that it does not and will never work as a true person-to-person currency - the very thing that makes crypto so incredible in the first place.
I'm still not giving up on Bitcoin (cash) because it is still such an awesome vision and technology. Banks and governments cannot control or confiscate my finances, I'm my own bank, I can send money anywhere and to anyone at any time, Instantly and for Free --- and it has the power to bring economic freedom to the entire world, bring down controlling authoritative governments and give back power to the individual.
But it's safe to say that the side of censorship and negativity have already won --- they've stolen the name and forced an inferior vision and technology upon the masses, forcing people to go to hundreds of altcoins, destroying the deflationary nature creating endless inflation, and taking away the very thing that makes Bitcoin awesome: use as a Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash.
It sucks, but it's the reality now. So I'm forced to diversify in a bunch of altcoins, and even in Bitcoin Core itself just to keep my money safe. Maybe BTC will come around, all the limitations imposed on it will be removed and it will return to being a true Peer-to-Peer currency once again... but I'm dreaming.
Fuck the use of censorship and negativity. The side that uses it is destined to fail sooner or later, but when they do, they take down a whole lot with them.
