Nobody can “force” their ideas into Open Source.

 
Of course they can. Have enough hired developers contribute to the
project, bully the project leader into resigning ...

Oracle tried that sort of thing, with the Open Source projects it
inherited from Sun. Remember what happened? The contributors left
wholesale to set up a fork. And the forks ended up doing better than the
originals.

So no, it pays not to antagonize the Open Source community. They have long
memories.
