Example, a lot of people here give Foundry a hard time, the operators get annoyed and start to not mine TXs form people whos addresses are public here. (sig campaigns, sales of things, and so on) It's their right, it's their pool. We have no say in it. No government, no OFAC, just FU to Bitcointalk users. The true free enterprise open market people would say 'good it's a private business they can do what they want' the true libertarians would say 'good it's a private business they can do what they want'.

So, are we now agreeing that bitcoin is in fact not censorship resistant at all, and depends on trusted third parties (mining pools) in order for anyone to use it?

There will be some users who are going to say the following:
-You don't like it, make your own coin!

Don't need to make your own coin, just use Monero. It is impossible to perform this kind of attack on Monero.

Hell of a grey area such people could find themselves in, heh.

For what its worth, I don't think ordinals should be censored either, regardless of how stupid I think they are:

I have been one of the most vocal opponents of NFTs and other such worthless crap. However, who am I to say that someone else's use case of bitcoin is wrong, and preventing them from using bitcoin in this way? What's to stop someone else coming out and saying that my use case of bitcoin is wrong, and trying to do the same thing to me?

When did free speech and freedom from censorship become the fringe view among the bitcoin community? It's quite disturbing.
