What I don't get is why those anti spam people don't like the big OP Return so that spammers are incentivized to use it so anti spam people can prune it on their nodes.

Can sb explain this to me?

because pruned nodes don't propagate blocks that they are missing pieces of the transaction payload

it's like saying to someone who wants to help keep bitcoin decentralized "you can only participate in block propagation if you obey our spam-permitting rules"

no spam. git r done and run more lightning nodes. speculative fiat money asset use of bitcoin is a poison pill to pollute bitcoin with fiat incentives. we want to kill the dollar and visa and mastercard, not become part of the shitcoin casino and stock market casino fraud.

This makes sense actually.

Let's have a scenario, is it not possible or just not implemented (sorry my ignorance):

I run knots and apply the same mempool filters to mined blocks OP_RETURNs (and drop just specific OP_RETURNs). Other knots users accept my pruned blocks because they personally don't need the data in those OP_RETURNS and assume it is spam (the same assumption they make when querying my mempool)
