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.
- No, I don't know the history because I have a life. I don't spend every waking hour of my life on steemit. I have a full-time job with a comfortable salary.
- I fully understand what censorship is and it's intended effect.
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.

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
