RE: User Flags
I am an ardent supporter of free speech . Its obvious FLAGGING is a slippery slope it will only to vendetta flagging and every effort to silence the speech of those who disagree. If this is steemit idea its a poor idea and the road people like me closing their accounts. if they start the censorship narrative, I see no future here.
Free Speech is critical to a fair society... 100% agreed
Flagging can be a slippery slope, creates drama and will be abused... agreed.
Is that steemits idea of flagging? certainly not!
We do need tools to counteract abuse and plagiarizm. In the end the flag is "just" a downvote.
And as such not only flagging, but voting in general will and can be abused, any tool can be abused, even a hammer.
If you have a better idea about how to deal with copy-cats and spammers i'd like to hear it!
I agree with you 100% . Its exactly what's happening everywhere. The mob rule is using our own laws and democracy to bully everyone who disagrees with their endless power reach. LOVE speech doesn't need protection , its that witch offends you that must be said and has to be protected . The point of free speech is to show BOTH SIDEs of the coin NOT JUST the side that YOU support . So many university students and they learn nothing.
