Politics seem to burst into just about everything lately, but perhaps the most alarming area is within the social media platforms. Not that social media shouldn't be used for political discussion, but rather that heads of social media companies are steering political discussion in ways they see fit by rewarding the opinions they agree with and hindering those they don't (via pulling or pushing advertisements or just straight up making some content easier to see than others). Steemit seems to be a step in the right direction for a more honest dialog online which is exciting. That being said the troll is never removed.
