ad 1) "Other people are just too stupid to understand"--> Yes, that is arrogance, like it or not.
ad 2) 3) You exactly prove my point. The fake email should be disregarded, but some newbie accounts are a conspiracy. That is a biased view.
ad 4) And again, we have hypocrisy:
Dictatorship from Hearn--> such a bad thing
Dictatorship from other devs --> Oh yes please, we need that so much.

Where did you find that quote, as I can't find it? I might have gotten a little bit carried away on that one (still can't find it), so I would like to correct it.
I never said that they were a conspiracy (not that unusual here), nor is my view biased. If it was, I would say that the mail is real and satoshi is right (negative view of XT).
What Hearn is proposing is nowhere near what we have today. He's essentially saying that he would implement stuff even if a lot of people are against it. I have not see this happen with Core (yet).
Update: Some corrections and additions.
