I believe that for most is no longer about the spam debate, it’s about “smelly” behaviour that cannot be justified.

I always try to see all sides of a debate and find reasons, but core has contradicted itself more than once and I really fail to see how they can be justified (for example like in the below contradiction):

- Core: “filtering spam is not acceptable as censorship is not acceptable and not the solution, and if you don’t like what we are doing just run another btc software implementation”

-Plebs: “ok got it, then I’ll run Knots”

- Core: Bans Knots nodes

If someone can help me see a reasonable explanation here please let me know (not hironic)
