josh (nprofile…avk2) Noshole (nprofile…z0td) think of a remote parking lot in a national park. Usually, just a handful of hikers show up, but once the limited wildflower bloom hits, it floods with cars. Volunteers install a 7-foot clearance bar across the entrance: sedans and SUVs still slip through, but the towering RVs that want to camp for the weekend and hog multiple spots for little or no fee can’t fit. Because the beam is welded in place, any future volunteer (miner) must enforce that same height limit. There’s no central authority, just the inherited structure. Contrast that with a lone volunteer who decrees “no gasoline-powered cars” (blocking valid txs), a personal whim instantly overturned when the subsequent volunteer waves gas gazzlers in while pocketing the parking donations. Yet many Ordinals/BRC-20 boosters now gaslight the debate, calling this neutral, equitable size filter “censorship” and conflating it with bans, despite having once cheered Marathon’s real OFAC blocklist—filters ≠ censorship.
