You're already losing and you'll be losing by a bigger margin with every new user.

Since when is Bitcoin a democracy?

It's not, it's better than that. The elites have found it incredibly easy to manipulate democracy, but they'll find it much more difficult to do the same here. I hope you're all going to put your money where your mouth is and put up those 1mb nodes. Just know that every single startup, merchant, payment processor, venture capitalist and new user are against you. All of those groups will gain from the benefits of network effects and a larger userbase. Your side of the argument is campaigning against a larger userbase. That's what it boils down to. Get ready to put a hell of a lot of money in to try and beat them. I doubt you're going to have much success, though.
