2 MB is inherently dangerous

No it's not.

We can safely increase the limit to at least 4MB right now, and there won't be a problem.

It has been tested on testnet already. Stop spreading misinformation. There's nothing dangerous about bigger blocks.

The reason of the blocksize limit was not decentralization, not safety, but anti-spam.

The blocks aren't full of spam, and the ant-spam measure is doing more harm than good right now, it's time to remove it while we work on a solution to keep the blocksize small without sacrificing security or throughput.      

Also it's ridiculous to say 2MB blocksize is dangerous while saying we should get 2MB later. f it's not dangerous later it's not dangerous now either.

though the internet is proven to be fast for hundred of MILLIONS of people as shown by all the countries doing livestreaming to prove its not a dream. the community accept some places can get over 100mb/s

500 Mb/s (Down and Up) is available to the public as well. (I have that internet as a regular user).
Pretty sure that's available for reasonable prices in most countries nowadays.

I know it's not the 'average internet', but it's available, and it will become standard eventually. As with all technology, the 'rich' are only a couple of years ahead of the mainstream.
