 Not every one cares about privacy or wants to be private 
 You should check out this book called The Blocksize Wars - it will give you a whole history of why small blocks are preferable. If you don’t have time for that the HBO documentary on Bitcoin is supposed to have a section dedicated to describing this time in Bitcoin history (small vs large blocks). 
Yes, not everyone cares about privacy on the surface; ask them to put a camera in there bathroom and everyone changes their toon. 
 Like I was there for the blocksize wars lol 
 Then why are you memeing for a hard fork? Why are you not saving in BTC Cash? 
 Because I never wanted a secondary chain in the first place… 
 But the Bitcoin community has spoken - small blocks won the war to keep nodes cheep, easy, and affordable to run…to keep them decentralized. 

Correct me if I’m wrong; it’s possible to change to large blocks without a hard fork and hence secondary chain so what are you talking about? 
 "Community" lol 
 Glad I can amuse you, what would you call it? 

Also you haven’t answered how you expect larger blocks w/o a hard fork. 
 It’s nothing personal.

I just find the whole concept of segregating people into categories w/ communities bad.

I never said we could or couldn’t or if we should or shouldn’t.

But we already have so does it matter much n e more?
