Most people on the Internet discussing it are too biased to give neutral or reasonable opinions on the topic and it's hard to distinguish reason from bullshit a lot of the time.
Let's be honest, that applies to any topic on the Interweb.

No way. Nakamoto hasn't posted anything for years, and segwit is a fairly recent thing initially proposed in late 2015.
This, lol.
Satoshi was active on this forum. Here are his posts.
As you can see his last post was on December 12th, 2010. After that he has given no further information.
Because SegWit was proposed far later than when satoshi left, he had no direct or official opinion on it, nor did he have an opinion on Bitcoin Cash.
Many supporters of Bitcoin Cash have argued that satoshi supported larger block sizes and opposed SegWit. It's difficult to suggest that he was against SegWit, and I think that this statement is made just because people see SegWit as being against block size increases. As for whether he supported larger blocks, it looks like he did. Whether he knew what the implications of larger blocks would be were the network under more stress I don't know, but personally I don't subscribe to the narrative that the block size can never be increased or that it's necessarily bad.
A likely source of your information would be the subreddit r/btc. While uncensored (with open moderation logs), r/btc is mainly a protest against r/bitcoin, and therefore most people on that subreddit are in an echo chamber of supporting larger blocks, much like how people in r/bitcoin are in an echo chamber of opposing larger blocks.
Personally I would suggest that you ignore both subreddits and simply learn about how Bitcoin works. Most people on the Internet discussing it are too biased to give neutral or reasonable opinions on the topic and it's hard to distinguish reason from bullshit a lot of the time.

I read somewhere Satoshi Nakamoto, the father of bitcoin didn't agree with Segwit and he was opposed it. is it true? If yes Does it mean he agreed with Cash?
