Bitcoin isn't pretending to be any of those (which is essentially what the claim is). Do you see any of that on bitcoin.org, anywhere in Bitcoin Core, or in the Bitcoin Whitepaper? Or in any of the top cryptoassets by market cap?

Bitcoin proponents have been semi-continuously yammering about all of those for over a decade. If anyone seriously disagreed, there'd be a disclaimer on bitcoin.org.
