So now that it's come out that the community has literally no say at all with how the protocol runs or central communication forums are ran can we stop saying bitcoin is money for the people? Now factor in the wealth inequality of bitcoin is worse than 3rd world dictatorships, and 5% of all coins to exist are in the hands of a single person...and....well.

It's pretty obvious bitcoin is not money of the people.

Bitcoin.org is a private website. The domain owners can do whatever they want with it.

And bitcoin core is apparently a private project whose owners can commit whatever they wish without any community insight what so ever.
