while being the opposite of a democracy,
bitcoin meant to be democratic, where individuals had equal choice and its the combined majority choice that chooses what rules should be.
the opposite of democracy is tyranny. which as you know bitcoin is becoming(core dominance).
but we need to fight against that, fight against those lead devs that only want btc to be store of value, fight against those that love high fee's when high fee's are not and will never be needed. and fight against devs who dont want competition/choice/freedom
