RE: I ran into the highest expression of liberal intellectual pursuits; by being trolled to stop my free speech rights on steemit!
I do not know how to answer those questions because it depends on who owns electricity. It depends on who owns the Internet and different parts of the Internet. It depends on the debate on copyrights, patents, trademarks, etc. Again, it depends on so many different things. The ability to censor is like the ability to close your door. You have the right to close your door. However, if you are closing my door, that might be a problem. So, it comes back down to private property rights. If it is not yours, then it is not yours. However, it depends on who owns what. Now, flagging can violate private property rights. Flagging can be a form of democracy. However, I prefer a republic over a democracy. In conclusion, it all depends on so many different factors and it ultimately depends on who owns what.
It doesn't matter who owns the electricity one bit. A vote for or against rewards for a particular contribution isn't predicated in the least on who owns the electricity.
It doesn't matter who owns the internet one bit, just like the irrelevance of who owns the electricity.
Voting for or against rewards for a particular contribution is also not predicated on Copyrights, patents, trademarks or any laws because voting for or against rewards is a fundamental part of a voluntary Tokenized Social Media Blockchain, and nobody is violating anyone else by choosing to vote FOR or AGAINST would be rewards. Nobody is Closing someone else's door either, so stop alluding to the crap about suppression of expression because clearly this is not suppression one bit when they can and do freely express that they feel suppressed as much and wherever they want and however they please. Flagging Cannot Violate Property rights. Stop Promulgating Grade A Nonsense.
Why do you hate private property so much?
