Current majority of Bitcoin users supports Core, so it's not a problem if they have some influence.

That is not true, you should refrain from making this statement.

A few thousand users use the free bitcoin desktop client but that does not mean support for Core's reckless actions.
Tens of thousands or more use bitcoin accounts on exchanges or via web wallets so even those desktop users don't mean much.

What there is is a small minority of very loud and generally abusive people who keep misleading, threatening and abusing those who dare to express their valid concerns about Core's behaviour.

I think we do not know the exact picture of what is happening now in the society of miners. Those news that sometimes appear do not bear the truth. We can only wait and hope that bitcoin transformations will pass quickly and imperceptibly. We can say that bitcoin is controlled by miners

In view of the last few years we can only say that bitcoin has been controlled by Core. Miners are a large group in the community, but not in control.

Despite all the misinformation we have been subjected to, in the bigger world of cryptocurrencies and finance, miners are the underdogs.
