It's more about the default. Defaults matter. You can roll your own node software with a small change to the main repo, in your own repository, no one is even trying to stop you.
What people are trying to stop is the DEFAULT being relaxed because defaults matter and make up a large amount of the market.
Pressuring Core who are also free and independent and not working for you or your specific interests, to maintain a default because you like it, even when there are externalities and costs and long term downsides for Bitcoin because you disapprove of the content that would be permitted once the defaults are relaxed is kind of censorship isn't it?
Wanting a governing body to maintain a definition of what is spam and what isn't is exactly the type of thing Bitcoiners should be digusted by and fight against.
