The people who would very likely sway a decision on the block size are currently opposed to increasing the block size because (1) there is no immediate need to do so and (2) there is risk that there can be unintended consequences (one of which is making the network more centralized).
Some people, including Hearn (who is more vitriolic than the average) believe that #1 is false and #2 is a necessary risk.
If you are coming at this from reading Hearn's words, you are coming at this from an extreme perspective that would be balanced by reading Gregory Maxwell's words. I recommend http://www.truthcoin.info/blog/blocksize-conversation/ for a critical, outside and rational perspective.
