I'm confused. This is a decentralized community, yet you are hating on them for coming here (to a decentralized free environment) and promoting their website and token? Doesn't this seem a bit...hypocritical?
I thought the purpose of this environment was to create content and be free from the "powers" like youtube, FB, Twitter...where if they don't like you they can censor you.
But what I'm seeing here is absolute censorship and harassment for someone doing exactly what this platform was meant to be. Seems like this environment only promotes neutral content or content that promotes steem...but the moment you talk about someone else's token or coin...the community forgets what this is all about and they harass the "heretics".
Am I missing something?
You are missing a lot here buddy. You either don't know the history or you are straight out retarded. I'm putting my chips on the second option as you also think this is censorship which shows that you either don't know how this place works and that their content hasn't been deleted from the chain because it's flagged out or you are playing stupid to make a point.
Read the two posts I mentioned.
Wow dude. Toxic reply. Not sure I want to have this conversation, but let's see if your next reply is civil.
Let's start with a couple of points.
Wikipedia:
Censorship is the suppression of speech, public communication, or other information, on the basis that such material is considered objectionable, harmful, sensitive, or "inconvenient".[1][2][3] Censorship can be conducted by a government[4] private institutions, and corporations.
Vocabulary.com
Censorship blocks something from being read, heard, or seen. If you've ever heard the sound of bleeping when someone is speaking on television, that's censorship.
To "censor" is to review something and to choose to remove or hide parts of it that are considered unacceptable. Censorship is the name for the process or idea of keeping things like obscene word or graphic images from an audience.
This is what censorship looks like. It is intentionally trying to hide or discourage anyone from reading his post. Not only is it trying to discourage reading it, but it also discourages this user from creating new content as it will most likely be censored again and have their monitary rewards taken away. You can call it what you like, but this is aggressive censorship. This is the exact reason people on Youtube are upset. Having their monetary rewards taken away is a form of censorship.
The contents of his post was not offensive or distasteful, it was simply not a popular idea and threatened the insecure who's trying to protect their investments. I've been on steemit long enough to see this happen many times.
At least with Youtube, Facebook or Twitter you only have one entity to worry about. Here, you can have hundreds or thousands who can silence you.
Take my sincere apology snowflake.
lol
I do too but I still inform myself first before forming an opinion about something. That's something I would highly encourage you to do before making any conclusions again and stating them on chain.
You obviously don't understand how Steem works. Although this post is flagged to 0$ payout it is NOT removed from the blockchain and can still be browsed on all Steem interfaces.
And I repeat once again, please learn the facts before making any assumptions about a topic which you clearly have no understanding about.
Oh Biff, you just can't help but bring toxic yourself can you? LOL!!!
Your ignorance-fueled opinions are toxic butterfly.
lolol this explains your lack of reasoning
well done snowflake!
hahahah you even gave yourself an upvote for the effort. Ah, I ain't gonna let that slide.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Your replies are epic!!! That other dudes just an ass. Ignore him.
