RE: BRD comes to Steemit!

in #crypto6 years ago (edited)

The problem is if you simply restrain or hinder my freedom to speak, for my post to be seen, - you don't have to block it out right ("this post is no longer visible"...) - that is still a hindrance to my rights. Being made invisible is a hindrance.

Also using china and facebook aren't good counter-examples because they are explicitly immoral. "I'm more moral than Ted Bundy which is good right?". Not really because you could still be a complete asshole by that criteria. Being better than bad isn't good enough.

Just as an example i'll flag your post, which you could unflag only because you have more SP than me, but imagine if you couldn't do that? I don't think that's right. I'm making you invisible and hindering your ability to express yourself in a very real way. This is an impediment to your freedom to express yourself unhindered. And no one will help you because i'm not accountable to anyone and I really should be for being such a dick. People are being flagged simply because other people don't like them.

If I had a billion steempower i become the centralization. I'll decide, i'll make the rules, people are already behaving like bastards on here.

I don't think being made invisible and demoted to a sister site is a good enough solution.
