RE: Facts about tongue and Okinawa Island

in #facts5 years ago

Your first "statement" is a word for word copy from this FB Post

Today's dental trivia: The tongue is the strongest muscle in the human body and the only muscle in the entire body that is connected on one end only.

You just left out the "strongest muscle in the human body"... How can you not understand why they would flag that as plagiarism?

The second factoid about Okinawa is rather well known.

Where did you get your photo images? Did you cite sources for them? Even if they are public domain or Creative Commons (CC) images, you still need to link out to the source.

Couple of years ago I had issues with steemcleaners, since I've been linking out to ANY quotation or image, they've not bothered me.

I had some problem with mackbot a few months ago, I went to them in discord and complained that I hadn't done anything for the downvotes, and they were reversed.

Sort:  

Let me tell you a funny thing. I have never seen the source Facebook post @steemcleaners (a goon, a fascist, a thug) has mentioned in his comment. I read it somewhere else in 2018 and posted it to my website that is also about facts but in urdu. Here is the link to the fact about tougue in urdu on my website posted before 3 march 2018.

How come @steemcleaners (a goon, a thug, a fascist) can claim that i have copy pasted the fact from the source facebook post when i have never seen that post before ever in my life. This fact might be on thousands of websites with different wording. If my wording has matched with someone else's wording that doesn't mean i am copying their content.

Why can't @steemcleaner (a thug, a fascist, a goon) simply understand that facts aren't copyrighted.

Can @steemcleaners & @steemcleaner (goons, thugs and fascist of steemit) tell me who owns the rights to below mentioned facts:

  • Most of us have five fingers in each hand.
  • (let's post one more about tongue) most of us have one tongue.
  • Earth has one moon.

Did i just copy pasted someone else's content (because my wording might match with someone else's wording somewhere else on the internet)? Have i become a plagiarist by posting above facts even though i haven't given the sources?

No. I didn't do any of the above. And @steemcleaner & @steemcleaners (goons, thugs and fascists of steemit) have to understand this. They just can't call anyone a plagiarist by finding some random post or article on the internet as a source which might have some words matching.

Like I said, I'm not taking their side; just do everything you can to research what words you are posting, if they match someone else words, copy the URL and link out to it.
I did that with your "ice for toothache" and found hundreds of references, but none of the exactly matched your wording. But you COULD link out to one of them; it wouldn't hurt you, just take a little bit more time.

So even though I am not wrong I have to follow these fascists's (@steemcleaner & @steemcleaners) rules if i want to post anything on steemit (a decentralized platform). Doesn't seem so decentralized.

Everyone else adheres to these rules; why do you imagine that you alone are exempt?

Adhering to the rules isn't the problem here. Adhering to fascists rules is. If these fascists think sharing facts is plagiarism, they are wrong and I can't adhere to that.

Rules are rules, if you can't adhere to the same rules as the rest of us, then go to Facebook where you can post all the dribble you like

Now, I'm done with this. Thank you, good luck and have a great day

Now i am officially offended by you too by asking me to leave steemit. Don't tell me where to go or not.

Difference of opinion is one thing but fascism isn't acceptable. Atleast i won't accept it.
