I never said someone had to “tune” global and still call it “global”. Whoever floats your boat but in my mind there’s no sense trying to tell others what Nostr is or is not when there’s n...

As I see it this will lead to a scenario where there are two classes of Nostr, one with censorship enabled and the "free-speech clients".
Much like KYC BTC and non-KYC BTC, and eventually they will break compatibility.
This already happened to the Fediverse and it's why it failed.

I disagree but am thrilled to hear others thoughts. Take care.

I disagree completely and I’m not trying to destroy nostr. In fact, I believe Nostr can succeed because of it. A user configures their experience by choosing a client, a relay, or their configurati...

Wrong.
Global is global, it is meant to be that way.
Whatever you do to it in order to "tune it" makes it something else.
You are indeed lying to the user if you call it "global".
Put a warning on it if you wish, but don't take it away, it's up to the user to see it or not.

Why is it sad? And which subversion do you see I’m missing?

This has been, by far, one of the most ratio'd notes I've ever seen on Nostr.
The lack of "concern with protecting thoughts deemed wrong" is the key part here, as it reveals the intention to unprotect notes ("thoughts") according to parameters established by an authoritative minority.
Sounds to me like the people crying "tyranny" are the ones trying to create their own little tyranny here on Nostr.

Yes — I missed where you said “not just” instead of “not” in the first paragraph. Sorry about that. I had seen further in what you wrote where it seemed you were trying to say it was for eve...

Could be language barrier, but "not just a social media" is not the same as saying "a social media not just for".
However the spirit of the note was very clear, and closer to your original interpretation.
Especially the part that says "your conservative bullshit thoughts are the last thing".

Shameful.
