Inscriptions are spam and an attack on bitcoin, but there is some good to come from these shitcoin degens. https://i.nostr.build/dem3.jpg  
 If it's spam why does my node say it's a valid transaction? 
 “Spam email” follows the rules of the following protocols:

SMTP, POP, or IMAP

You accept it as a valid “receive” email because it follows the protocol rules, but it’s still “spam.” 
 Ok great so you are accepting that your definition of spam is completely subjective. 

If you don't like it, it's spam.
If you like it, it's valid. 
 One man’s spam is another man’s treasure?

 The point I’m making is miners CAN stop you.  They are just choosing not to.

Like is clearly showing what miners are capable of.  

Perhaps that is his point? 
 Most email providers remove 95% of your email before it even reaches your account, because it is obvious spam. 
 That's a subjective, centralized filter. 

Do you want your money to go through the same filter? 
 Never said I did, just pointing out a flaw in his argument.
