 Watching you guys fight over cryptocurrency is actually hilarious. Dude people can put their money wherever they want. It's not your business at all, trying to bash people for not seeing Bitcoin or Monero either one the same way as you is just dumb. Use what you want, don't use what you don't want. 
 Argument and conflict is good for people 😀 
 I'm a "live and let live" kinda guy, but it really bugs some people when someone is wrong!
I know, I've been there 😄 
 also, say what you want, and i say go fuck your monero, useless shitcoin with weird cult of public anonymity and trolling bitcoiners for "doxxing themselves"

the use cases get smaller and smaller with every improvement in the bitcoin infrastructure, and every relay delisting and every time there is another less way to trade monero for anything... and every time the price continues to merely manage to be a literal stablecoin because the only users are on the darkweb and prices are set in fiat 
 Good for you 
 in case you didn't realise, if the value of your coin does not stay at long term parity with bitcoin, but instead with the greatest shitcoin USD, this means that every monero cent is a hot potato that nobody wants to keep and nobody will hold it and the price will continue to scrape along as a proxy for physical cash on the internet, at best

it's never going to be accepted in general, because its design makes too many assumptions and can't effectively be used with any kind of state channel ... and idgaf what you gonna say "oh there is a monero lightning" *cough* build the NWC integration or GTFO 
 Proud for you bro 
 rent free 
 every time some idiot tries to make a case that monero has a valid use case i delight in tearing apart whatever makeshifts they try to employ to justify their fandom of this dead and stupid shitcoin 
 bitcoin privacy has terrible UX

cope harder 
 the egos of moneros are easy to provoke and cause a sense of injury, coping is exactly what you are doing 
 also FYI, privacy is not a UX, that's a clear example of an impression based on exaggerated emphasis of the very few cases where anyone has actually been traced by their bitcoin transactions, over the vast majority, 99.99999% that don't lead anyone to trouble

KYC is a problem, sure, but UX is not network game theory, thus, also more proof that monero cope is literally delusional 
 *says moneros are coping*
*immediately proceeds to cope*

Control that chip on your shoulder 
 What flavor chip are we talking? And 5 second rule for dropped food right? Lol 
 tell that to Roman Sterlingov

clearly the fact most txs don't cause arrests 
means privacy isn't important 

very convincing 
much wow 
 "can't effectively be used with any kind of state channel"

Guess you don't know what FCMP enables yet 👀
