No offense taken! To clarify on what I mean by "BTC's decisions," the tale I've heard is that a small group of people control a lot of the messaging around Bitcoin, e.g. the sub-reddit and a site and a Twitter account. These people also had an economic interest in Blockstream. So they used the fork to promote a solution that benefits Blockstream.

Yep, that's pretty much spot on. R/Bitcoin is extremely censored (and the mod logs are not public). R/BTC is another discussion forum that seems to be more open (people from R/Bitcoin will say otherwise). You'd think they'd spend more time talking about all the amazing things blockchain technologies are going to facilitate, but they mostly just spend their time hating on the other group. Sad, but what do you expect, both groups are comprised of "humans on the internet"!!
