That’s exactly the point of running your own node, you decide your relay and validation policies, and I decide mine. If my node doesn’t relay your BIP47 or tx0 transactions, it’s because I’ve chosen tighter policies to reduce unnecessary data and long-term storage risk. You can route around it, that’s how Bitcoin’s peer network is designed to work.
Knots isn’t “propaganda.” It’s Bitcoin Core with additional configurability and better defaults for people who take node sovereignty seriously. Both Core and Knots enforce the same consensus rules, neither breaks Bitcoin, and both coexist perfectly fine on the network.
If you prefer to relay every kind of transaction, go ahead. Others choose to run leaner, more conservative nodes to avoid bloat and potential legal or operational risks. That’s not brainwashing, that’s responsible node operation and informed choice.
