I think the OP was reading my posts in another thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1502768.msg15136683#msg15136683
Also TPTB_need_war's posts in the "Bitcoin IS destroyed" thread.
How do you calculate that Blockstream is for small blocks
Blockstream is for making sure they and the Chinese mining cartel control how fast the block size increases, so they can squeeze maximum transactions fees that the market will bear. You could read the Reddit discussion between Professor Jorge Stolfi and TPTB_need_war, which explained this.
And SegWit is all about centralization of validation, so that we get a 666 enslavement system. Do you think the powers-that-be invested $70 million in Blockstream for no reason. Come on. You don't think (Mr. ZIRP and Russian oligarchy maker) Larry Summers (who is on the board of 21 Inc.), Peter Thiel (BitPay, gifted $100k to Vitalik @ Ethereum, etc), and other banksters elite are in on that. Come on.
There is only one possible way you defeat those bastards. And that is to make something so popular, that can't be centralized. Once it is very popular, they will have a difficult time taking it away from the people.
Even the French presidential candidate Le Pen, is advocating banning Bitcoin because she has realized AnonyMint was correct in 2013 when he wrote Bitcoin : The Digital Kill Switch:

Some people are starting to realize that Bitcoin is a Trojan Horse planted to force nation-states off of cash and into a digital enslavement.

When facing a potential adversary with trillions of defense $ at its disposal (and nuclear weapons). You have two options:
1. Security through Ubiquity (So widely used in the world economy as to be important for its continued function.)
2. Security through Obscurity (Small enough that state actors won't bother with it.)
The network is secured by warehouses full of gear burning MW's of electricity, their locations are known. Nodes publicly broadcast their IPs. PoW protects us from certain attackers, but not from state level actors.
We're going to stick with 1MB blocks and keep on rollin' with option 2.
Nakamoto's ideals were actually option 1, but we can thank Gregory Maxwell for demonstrating Satoshi was wrong and changing course back to 2.
