Nostr is often discussed as censorship-resistant, but the precise claim matters. It does not force every relay to host every message. It makes it harder for one platform, one server or one company to erase the whole graph.
Resistance through plurality
A user can publish to multiple relays. A relay can reject content. Another relay can accept it. A client can filter or show it. This plurality reduces dependence on one gatekeeper while preserving freedom of association for relay operators and users.
The limits
Censorship resistance is not legal immunity, quality control or universal reach. A post that exists somewhere may still be invisible in popular clients. A relay can disappear. A domain can fail. A user can lose a key.
Crays interpretation
For Crays, the important lesson is not political sloganism. It is business resilience: creator profiles, fans, reputation, venue access and governance signals should not be hostage to one platform policy.
