Large blocksize = blockstream lovers fail to recognize that a 4mb blockweight renders node operators a huge burden because they actually have to manage their own limited resources, compared to just 2mb
Whining about big fees = Bitcoin fees are like taxes and blockstream lovers want that to increase on chain tax to bait people over to offchain
Wealth redistribution = In altcoins, but not bitcoin.. people constantly whine about premine, and centralized store and thats why they are happy to not have it in bitcoin, and instead keep to bitcoins standard method of distribution (pools)
Democratic Bitcoin = consensus is decentralised bitcoin, core do not own bitcoin. core is just core. bitcoin is a network of many different 'brands' check out cores own github

What is Bitcoin?
Bitcoin is an experimental digital currency that enables instant payments to anyone, anywhere in the world. Bitcoin uses peer-to-peer technology to operate with no central authority: managing transactions and issuing money are carried out collectively by the network.
Also complaining about Blockstream, who are tied to banks (fact, research hyperledger and PwC)
Conspiracy theories about Blockstream = call out any negative details about blockstream gets you shunned for highlighting such negatives. call blockstream the positive utopian dream of dominance wins you a contract to shill for them
Censorship = this is their favorite tool, just see how many posts have been censored at /r/bitcoin
Lying to fit the narrative = blockstream lovers do this alot. first rule about loving blockstream dont talk about blockstream negatives and fight those that do
5-year old behavior = when caught in the bullshit, they get angry and turn their back on bitcoin, defending blockstream, They are not loyal to bitcoin if they cant shape it into blockstream view, and become enemies of bitcoin very quickly.

Democracy needs a central authority to enforce the vote system. Bitcoin is not a democracy, it's a voluntary voting system based on the individual's wish

BTW I don't think democracy is any better than dictatorship, they are both flawed.

When majority of people is proven to be idiots then democracy is the worst possible system. Anyways we don't have any true democracy anymore, everything is manipulated.

What if Satoshi didn't leave and stayed with us as bitcoin leader? Can you imagine what will happen under his guidance? His word might be deciding factor in disputes...

Yes exactly majority of people are idiots, that is why you cannot allow stupid people to vote, or you end up in disaster.

A Satoshi monarchy is not good either because he might be right on 1 thing but wrong on other 100.

So an oligarchy of a few 100 people is preferable, where they have the right expertise, each one can correct the error of the others,and nobody can become a monarch
