RE: Content-Type Value and Reward Discussion
porn and drug dealers didn't stop the internet. Nor, apparently, do the sick people who do sick things jump on the internet, and steem is loads more transparent.
I think you are on a crusade and if you can't handle that the tech used here might be used by bad people, I can direct you to other quite popular venues where pieces of metal are considered to be devils enchanting good people to murder.
censorship has nothing to do with actual bad things being done. If people post proof of their evil here, how is this logical? number one rule of badness is don't get caught. when people do bad things, someones rights are stolen.
Filtering controlled by you is your business. But filter for you controlled by me? You know, I really hate sexy girl selfies. Also I hate people apologising for censorship and comparing censorship to justice, and apologising for customary "crimes" like me smoking weed in my room and me not raping babies... You know that was not a radical claim only 20 years ago in public opinion. What about the muslim and jew custom of mutilating boy's private parts before they can decide?
It is very brave to set up a forum where nobody can be silenced. Your sentiments are shameful.
It's about the what the image and reputation the community wants to develop going forward and growing towards. Feed it, and it grows. Then an image sticks, even after it changes as well, if Steemit changes later.
You claiming that my sentiments are shameful, can also be said about you, trying to shame me for saying what I said. LOL. Nice try. Especially trying to fallaciously frame it as a straw man "where nobody can be silenced"...LOL. I'm not arguing for that censorship of information. I'm talking about specific behavior of content creation. Porn, and sports betting, isn't really information. Not wanting that on Steemit is not "silencing" information or people. It's saying to go make your money somewhere else.
You also can't just claim something should be part of a community, based on an alleged defense of "censorship". Then you sound like an apologist who uses censorship to defend something on the grounds of censorship. Who's shameful now? J/k. :P You sound more upset than me, because I speak out about this. Sheesh. You won't guilt trip me with BS.
