If you follow any of the posts in /r/btc you will find people frequently posting before and after screen shots of their censored posts advocating for a block size increase or an alternative node implementation such as classic.
There was also a post talking about how Theymos went to great lengths to modify the CSS for the /r/bitcoin sub in order to reorder the comment threads and make it appear as if posts from certain users are highly up voted when they are in fact heavily down voted.
I'm aware that Theymos isn't a direct employee for Blockstream. That doesn't mean he isn't receiving financial compensation or some sort of other quid pro quo for supporting the Blockstream agenda.
"This could be trivially verified by searching "site:reddit.com/r/bitcoin block size XT classic"
I'm sure that will return a lot of results of people trashing any increase in blocksize and saying negative things about alternative node implementations those kinds of comments are encouraged and promoted.
Edit: since you are a moderator of the bitcoin-dev mailing list you are probably also aware that there is censorship going on in that forum as well...
