Core is based.

There is block space for sale and you can't control a free market like bitcoin

The Knotzi narrative is ridiculous, autistic and bitcoin is a free and open protocol and I am so thankful these people cannot control it

Sorry, this is conflation of terms like 'free' and 'open'. I see this confusion in many areas (like political thought), not just Bitcoin. Free and open in civilized societies (or where that is the goal) doesn't mean 'do whatever you want.' That isn't freedom, but hellscape.

If we don't remove the filters, they can only force things in via out-of-band, which only works with overly-centralized mining... which is something we can't have (and need to fix) anyway (and such efforts are heavily underway).

We don't actually have to cater to the attacks just because we can't stop 100%. Do you use an email service with spam filters?

Bitcoin is not email

It doesn't care what you think it should be used for

And you can't stop people using it in ways your autistic ass doesn't like. Sorry, but that's how censorship resistance works. Good luck with your knotzis and money transmission law pals over there with your tether funded pool. Hope it works out for ya

This is what I mean. You've conflated what censorship resistant means. That is in regard to financial transactions. If we (Bitcoiners as a community) want to stop non-financial transactions, or over so many bytes of data, etc. we can do that.

Bitcoin might not care, but it follows the rules we as a community decide because we decide on the code. *I* can't stop anyone, but *we* can.

Its not a democracy

This concept of "community" isn't real. There's block space for sale, and you can't decide what others want to do with it.

All we have to do is set the rules. It is much more strict than a democracy.

You can do whatever you want

miners decide what goes in blocks regardless of the software a cohort of users might believe about what should or should not go there.

Bitcoin is based on economic incentives. There is no belief or ideology present. Bitcoin is anarchy
