If by banning you mean shamming ๐Ÿ˜

No, but 360 dunking on them all day

No, they might be stupid and wrong but they are allowed to be stupid and wrong.

That's the neat part. You can't. And that's a feature.

And how exactly would we do that? Nostr is for enemies

Not even almost.

Asking that, means you are one of them

Can you ban anything at all from Nostr? Thought the was the whole point...

When you cross that threshold you become the very aggressor you fought against.

๐Ÿ’โ€โ™‚๏ธ

banning socialists and communists could be seen as extreme and counterproductive. A balanced approach that enforces rules consistently while respecting free speech might be more effective.

Good luck trying lmfao

What a dumb question. Everybody has a voice, especially the oppressed.

And even the self-oppressed. ๐Ÿ˜†

Have you tried calling Nostr support? Reaching out to the head of content moderation? Possibly HR? nostr:npub1hte85nxymfyez0nlmmxf287nh9cujfuetxhk9vptwcdqg0pn8pxqxasw3d nostr:npub1xtscya34g58tk0z605fvr788k263gsu6cy9x0mhnm87echrgufzsevkk5s

Denied

Nostr is for everyone even people we hate. Speech must be free even if and especially when we disagree ๐Ÿ‘€

What fun is that? I'd rather they be bullied off the platform, as God intended.

As soon as we start banning, we're taking away freedom..

no need, they wouldnt dare enter an arena with no one to cry to when things get hard

haha no.

found on Twitter๐Ÿ˜…

The moment you start to ban people with opposing ideas (how stupid those ideas ever may be from your perspective) you saw the seed of oppression that will at some point used against you... this has been proven time after time in human history

Why? In diversity we find challenges and in challenge opportunities.

No, but relays where statists are banned or discovery mechanism for non-statists I would appreciate. Or maybe badge-rating mechanism.

You can't ban people, that's not how Nostr works. Mastodon works that way though, through the power of network effect of the servers, it was (last time I checked) very socialist-leaning. Thankfully something like that is not possible on Nostr - your identity is not tied to any particular relay, so if someone bans a relay, your identity can be (and usually still is) multi-relay.

I was looking at nostr.wine and other paid relays, they seem to be perhaps slowing getting there. I'm not sure it's better than running your own relay at this point though.

But say you had this special relay, but also wanted the public ones, it's not clear to me how to direct the note to the special one and not the public ones etc...

Perhaps amethyst can do it, it is the emacs of nostr clients.

I only meant it for global feed to be usable. If you go to the global feed of that relay, no statists nor spam should be there.

Of course the way Nostr is designed the notes will be rebroadcasted by clients, etc

That's like saying banning people from using Bitcoin. Is not how this works.

Good grief this gif sums up my current work extremely accurately. In a weird way it even provides me peace to think that Beavis is there with me in the struggle

It defies the purpose of having a social media that puts freedom of speech on a pedestal, no?

Think ideas should be fought with ideas. Discussions and debates should always be encouraged.

Why? Just don't follow them. Easy.

they slide into replies

No

No, but I do like to automatically suppress reach of the scammers and spammers. WoT should help keep it decentralized.

WoT?

Web of Trust

No I would rather mock their poor ideas and use words to convince them nothing is free and their policies lead to death, destruction, and basically the opposite of everything they promise. IRL is a different story, but in cyber space it's much harder to violate one's private property so I don't think censorship is the answer.
