They COULD join relays that don’t allow such content AND self-censor, moderated communities would also make sure that illegal media does not make through, nostr’s censorship resistance, doesn’t mean you will be forced to see content you don’t want to, it only means that information will be available for someone that wants it, hosted on relays that allow it. 

 Please provide a list of relays which self-censor and their criteria, so I can avoid publishing to them. 

 When I said self-censor I meant the individual self censoring, as per the list of relays, I don’t have that with me but relays often come with a ToS you might want to checkout, like:
