"I removed my fulltime geek witness vote after finding out his bots upvote posts like this:" – VD
@viraldrome For the past several months @fulltimegeek has been using almost all of his steem power via an army of bots to reward numerous content creators, those who have caught his eye by putting out quality content. If @caladium up and decided to stop putting out quality content and embrace racist filth then it would seem to me a good idea that you bring this matter to FTG's attention so he can choose weather or not to update his list. This is a much better idea than using tired virtue signaling tactics with the aims to manufacture a gotcha moment in an effort to establish a faux moral high ground. Don't be a social justice wiener, it's unbecoming. If you see a problem, address it. At the very least have the stones to tag him so he knows you're out here trying to mislead people into thinking that either he, or his robots are deliberately racist.
@thoughts-in-time When did caladium put out quality content? He's just been posting nazi shit for months. I don't use that term easily either, I don't mean he's alt right, he's flat out racist
FTG has been upvoting worthless garbage for a while, I only became aware all those fulltime bots were his today, before that i wondered why retarded anti vax posts were getting rewarded by an army of full time bots. Now I know.
A few months ago kooks would come here post some conspiracy shit, make zero cents, and leave. Now they get heavily rewarded. Maybe you want steemit to be pizzagate central, a refuge for antivax nuts, I don't want to see that.
Why is it my job to tag him? He should know what his bots are upvoting, that's his responsibility.
Free Speech heard of that stuff?

You've seriously never heard of this idea, and you're on the #Steem blockchain?
Anyone can come here and buy more steem than you and make you invisible, you are a stupid cunt if you think this some free speech haven
Yep, that's a key flaw in the design that we need to change. Censorship, regardless of who is being censored, is bad for mankind.
I absolutely do not support any kind of hateful speech, but censorship is a slippery slope. You can't know your logic/ethics point north if you close off contrasting views.
Censorship is like a hungry beast that just doesn't stop consuming more until you realize that its now coming for you. Free speech and censorship are the only options but once you start censoring it never ends and ultimately leads into extreme thinking and craziness.
Why do these people express the hate speech? Its because they chose at some point to narrow their own supply of perspectives. The best way to combat bad arguments is by supplying more reasonable ones.
People need to stop hating words because of slang perception and instead look to root meaning. Those people are obviously a disgrace to their own people.
