RE: The many faces of violence

in #ungrip5 years ago (edited)

Still, a downvote is not financial violence.
Your rewards are urs after that 7day cycle. Before that they are not urs, therefore noone is taking anything from you.
Your rewards can also go down when a big whale uses his stake. Because the Reward Pool gets resplitted.
So your rewards go a bit down even tough noone downvoted you.

Downvoting is the most important tool to let a decentralized community regulate itself.

Sort:  

How much time or effort have you spent to try to comprehend my point of view or are you trying to convince me otherwise? Seems to me that your comment is a justification for status quo and not any real meaningful consideration of the ideas that I shared.

So.
I tell you that you get 5$ as Gift from me.
Am I violating you in giving you only 4,5$ and telling that I needed the 50ct for Bus to get to ya?

You shouldnt focus so much on that payout.
It's more like an orientation.
Also totally broke on most Frontends.

Wow youre really a great discussion partner! Thanks for pointing out that Im an Idiot.

When we control what other people can do with their money or belongings, we are engaged in violence.

Only the one with its private keys can control the funds on an account.

As already said the rewards are not paid out and therefore arent urs. when they are paid out they are urs. Before the 7days are over they are not.

So how does one violate you in taking something that isnt urs?

Look we only have one rewards Pool and everyone wants as much as possible. I can understand that.

Still you cant expect that such an raped reward Pool would be sustainable.
We would only have selfvoter here.

So where is ur problem?
Would you like me to now link you to some kind of bias post?

I really don't think you're getting the point bro. :/

The issue comes when certain people use it to harass or even silence others posts from being visible.

That's an issue with the system structure in general however, to allow that sort of power over other users if one has enough financial power to do it....

Hmmm 🤔 Sounds familiar.

I have to disagree.
You cant censor the steem blockchain.

Frontends can censor. But you can switch to another frontend or read the blockchain directly.

That has nothing to do with the Reward System.

I never thought it once could, If you have enough votes against you it can be used against people.

I've been unfortunately observing friends be harassedthis way for a bit.

On a positive note at least its shown the flaws of the system in particular and allows us to contemplate more systems of balance.

The issue seems more so to be bots.

but you are also correct with what you say simultaneously.
