RE: Just So We're Clear - The Tech Manager of Steemit Is Anti Democracy and Pro Oligarchy - in His Own Words.

You do it through the power of the mystified Reveal Button, which oddly is proven to bring even more exposure than an equal weight upvote in such situations. You promote it organically through discussions centred around facts, people who are interested (the low hanging fruit) will undoubtedly find it, because nothing can be Censored on Steem, it's entire basis is to provide a place for Freedom of Speech, that includes the @sneek retarded opinion, or how he curates. Ultimately the freedom of expression is no (larry flint) about protecting the popular but about protecting what's not popular (in this case the retards opinion).

Alas, I am much too familiarized with the lamentation blade. 😜

I don't know enough about the blockchain itself to be certain he could, or could not do dirty things beyond 'curating with an agenda' to hush people he disagrees with. That would be where my larger concern would be. I get what you are saying, and I don't suggest he does not have the right to curate as he sees fit... but I think he holds a lot of power to act responsibly with his Tech position. If there are efforts to censor free speech about controversial topics that effect everyone, then ya know... like I said it brings into question do the people who created Steemit back that behavior? If they do it'll end up like a paid FB.
