How do I convince this faggot that I'm right?

Let him try running a game with eight people, he'll realize you're right

By articulating a convincing argument, either appealing to reason or emotion, depending on the guy you're addressing.

Do either of you dm for this campaign?
No: then fuck off, dm's decision
Yes: whoever dms gets to choose
It's largely harder on the dm's part when you have more players. It's up to them to decide if they should have more people or not.
If he can't decide, then you should assume it's a no.
