RE: Steemit Developer @sneak Hides Two Highly Revealing Posts Related To Verifiable Student Actors Involved in Florida School Shooting

Can you point to one of the demonstrably false statements?

You have every right to downvote, if it's what you choose to do. However, have you considered that some people may see it as a violation of the non-aggression principle? People work really hard on this platform to get creative, and generate content that they think others might find valuable.

For example clarity's previous post was sitting at a value of approximately 50 before you gave it a good smack with your whamhammer; then for a short time, the value was at zero. How do you think that makes people feel?

How would you feel if open-minded whales who sided with clarity began a downvoting campaign against your posts, and effectively nullified the upvote efforts of dozens if not hundreds of people who found them beneficial? How would you feel if in real life people could cancel your paycheck?

Downvoting is part of the game for now, but it's my contention that it spiritually violates the non-aggression principle, and that people have the right to defend themselves. This type of thing is bound to lead to organized downvoting wars.

When people realize that downvoting is soft-censorship, or realize that downvoting might be a covert steemit tax on value, then they will simply abandon the platform.

I encourage you to use your dev power to change the platform, for the good. Keep downvoting, but detach the value debit, and soft-censorship. I can see down this road, and in my opinion downvoting will lead to the end of Steemit.


Will Flagging Ultimatly End up Killing the Steemit Platform?


P.S. If you think that someone is being demonstrably false, or spreading propaganda, why not simply address them in the comments instead of initiating aggressive action? All of the energies being devoted to downvoting wars steals from your creative powers, and creates enemies. It's more beneficial to disagree in comments and tell people why you disagree. The thing that I love about Steemit, is that it challenges me to get creative. I can see how getting downvoted would make people not only upset, but also disgusted with the platform.
