I love this article so much because it hits on so many points that I've been thinking about myself. That answer may sound a bit narcissistic, but it's not that. I am not Saying that because it mirrors my own thoughts expressly.

I know that I'm not the only one that questions the validity of the whole process and much like other minnows out there, especially those that are technologically challenged... I believe sometimes the whole process feels a bit futile. It's hard to get noticed and if you doing this for money then well... the learning curve can be steep.

*THAT BEING SAID.. . *

it's nice to know I'm making progress in trying to get a handle on technology advancing, social media, decentralization and the block chain as a whole.

Obviously research has been going into this whole process and there's enough people on here that would be able to state the opposite of it were true, that decentralization doesn't work for the purposes of weeding out undesirables or hate speech or anything else. Without censorship societal norms become dictated based off of the community that enforces. Suddenly people have a voice. How novel ;)

It seems as though, because the core becomes the same people that are actively constructing the block chain... the boundaries become more fluid with a place for most, in niche arenas sometimes... and that which is collectively approved of is approved because it is collectively accepted. It makes me wonder, is it because there is no centralization or core philosophy, that it slowly and over time begins to represent the actual thoughts or perceptions of society as a whole?

Where is that the fact that the core foundation is built up by certain individuals and protected by them through flagging or the reverse, not flagging certain content? Time will telk?

Your article is on point in my opinion. There is plenty of food for thought here and it's quite informative. Good work :) thank you very much
