First principle: It is not of you business how I use my money with other consenting parties. You might not think it's useful. Good for you. It's not your decision.

You can flood the internet with spam all you want I could care less, but when you attempt to pass such garbage
through my node hardware without my permission then that is my business. You don't have the right to tell me
what I can and cannot host on my own computer. It is amazing to me when spammers think they can flood the internet
with mountains of their garbage and expect no one to complain or do anything about it?

Do you enjoy receiving spam emails in your inbox every day? Do you have nothing better to do then look at
countless spam emails all day long? Or do you not take measures to block such spam from getting to your inbox in the first place?

Do you regard email spam filters as a form of censorship that should be removed from all email?

Spammers would no doubt remove all spam filters from every email software if they could. Which makes perfect sense
for someone to do when they have a financial interest in spamming and/or scamming people.

Maybe you enjoy looking at spam email all day long, as well as enjoy receiving physical junk mail delivered to your house
from the post office, but I would venture to say 99% of people do not like it and will do anything they can to avoid receiving it.
Hence, the massive negative reaction to Core 30's attempt to kill all spam filters.

Email spam filters do a pretty good job, but they can't block 100% of spam, but they do get pretty close.
But it is utterly stupid to say because spam filters can "only" block 95 to 99% of spam then they have failed,
therefore we should NOT have any spam filters at all. That is essentially what the Core idiot devs are doing.

OK, but you fail to understand the underlying, and what makes Bitcoin censorship-resistant. WHICH, if you do, it makes everything more complicated. It won't be merely about decentralized, censorship-resistant "money" anymore.

People may or may not agree in removing OP_RETURN limits, but Bitcoin is a network that could be used for arbitrary data too. Didn't Luke Dash Jr. embed a bible passage once? Luke would probably approve of that use case if the community shared their favorite bible verses through the blockchain.

- "That's not spam, saying it's spam is a Sin".

Do you understand there is massive difference between a bible verse that consists of a short line of text, and an entire photo image or a video?
