RE: Distributing Steem toward and away from content
The thing is that you can't do anything about a toddler with five million SP distributed across various voting accounts. A disordered person like that will shit all over the platform no matter what. People like that will get their 2.5 downvotes, too. What we need is a van Helsing account that has 10 million SP that can shut down practically any abuser here. Such an account would be funded by the middle class and a Steemit, Inc delegation alone. Who it would be controlled by would not be as important as being under constant and close scrutiny. I would gladly delegate 10% of my SP to an initiative like that.
They have created Helsing-esque accounts on the tribes and it seems that they have used some of the ideas of the original ;D Doing it on Steem is harder because of the decentralized nature but, perhaps possible at some point.
Steem is also bigger. What the anti-abuse accounts on Steem have done is go after the relatively small players. What we need is an account in possession of 5-10 million SP and that does not shy away from going after anyone.
This is why the idea was to have the top 200 holders opt into it with a percent or two, as it would create a monster that can take out any of them as individuals which puts in some self-checks. The idea is solid.
I like that idea. There would be some complications and the question of abusing the power still... It's definitely something to look into more.

" I might disagree with what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it"
A concept only understood by adults, and non lefties.
( I've never met a lefty who is an adult, emotionally and intellectually speaking, come to think of it)
Steem is oligarchial in it's construct.
Throw in a lefty bias into the mix, and you have.....well, steem(it)
