That might be a bit of a stretch. Still, I don't know why miners are OK with continuing to point hash at Antpool-group. Do they not care?
This was spoken about in the recent pod done by the ocean team. The idea that people would do the right thing by pointing their hash elsewhere, when a pool gets centralized or malicious, is a long dead idea. The main reason is, according to Luke, "the large miners at foundry and ANT Pool aren't bitcoiners". That cannot be further from the truth. The miners we have today have a different philosophy and understanding of bitcoin than miners from a decade ago

what do you mean they 'aren't Bitcoiners' and you disagreed with this statement?
They aren't.
Or they are large, industrial size mining pools who could care less about censorship they just want the $$$ even getting paid out in Dollars/fiat directly.
And even if they wanted to 'fight censorship' how can they if they have large industrial facilities, publicly listed companies, located onsite in Texas?

You have to Solo Mine... or mine with Ocean or at least a 'non-chinese' small group.
And the hashrate from small 'home' miners is so small... we would need hundreds of thousands of them to make any noticeable difference.
