First of all, a hard fork isn’t a proposal in the ordinary sense. It is the last line of defense against a hostile attacker. A fork is therefore not a “right” that someone exercises; it is a responsibility that the community may have to take when the protocol itself is under attack.
Second, your argument seems to come from an idealized model of democracy. But we are not operating in a democracy. We are operating under rough consensus, where agreement is reached through coordination rather than simple majority rule. And, in our particular case, the minority can end up being crushed democratically, if you will.
With love ❤️
quotingI don't agree with your Bitcoin fork proposal, but I will fight to the death for your right to fork it
