RE: What's in it for me?

Dislike vs Downvote:

Steemit should replace downvoting flagging with dislikes which does not hide the posts, the comments, according to how Steem works and everything. Hypothetically, downvoting would be fine depending on the details, the structure, the nature of a website, assuming that a website could be like private property and not public which websites tend to be for a few reasons. I don't have time right now to talk about how tech cartels violate the 4th amendment. I don't even have time right now to talk about how downvoting can interfere with free markets, in the exchange of goods, services, ideas, assuming that the government has been funding Facebook, etc, assuming that the CIA, etc, have been spying online, and especially assuming the nature of how servers and data runs around the Internet meaning that it becomes more difficult for something to be strictly private property when it is omnipresent within some aspects of communism, socialism, etc.

Excellent points.

Steem is still my favorite place for now, but I encourage people to draw me away to better places.
