In the fork war nodes were being asked to store crazy amounts of data to facilitate the whole world using L1 cheaply in perpetuity.
In the spam war, nodes are being asked to relay as much data as possible for no benefit whatsoever.

This war however is an effort to redefine Bitcoin entirely - as arbitrary data storage that can sort of do money as an additional cool feature.
