Ahh yes. That oh so favorite term, used relentlessly by those that are trying to hide Truth.
What we have today however, is absolutely hilarious, and Revealing.
Today we have someone practicing Cancel Culture on the LeoFinance/Hive world. Not really a new thing of course, but this one is particularly grand, and it was claimed that this individual's illogical Opinion, amounted to the General Consensus of all of us that are here, which is what I would like to see with this post.
I am not going to re-hash on the argument of whether downvoting is good or not. Most everyone that disagrees with downvoting has already left, and the rest are probably on their way out too. However, I'd like to point out why I think that a great deal of folks on every side of the political spectrum, don't bother with this blockchain for 'blogging', and won't come here either.
Today on LeoFinance, a post was made about Tesla/crypto:

On that post, a commenter made this comment, which is actually very related to the topic that was being discussed:
Whether or not you agree with the meme's premise or not, isn't the point, but there are some things to note here.
#1 - the blog poster downvoted the post without comment. The big 'leo.voter', also hammered this commenter, as well as a couple others. How bout that for encouragement to 'engage'? Maybe they were severely butt hurt that someone called out the Elon puppet? Oh well.
#2 - one of the downvoters, actually did comment as to why he was downvoting, however, it was due to a baseless, illogical, paranoid schizophrenic reaction, indicated in the equally ridiculous false accusation:
What is hilarious and simultaneously putrid, is the fact that this individual resorted to an "ANTI-SEMITE" label as his method of Attack, when, there was no mention of any Jews/Arabs/Semites, whatsoever. So, how did this intellectual bully of Cancel Culture, arrive at 'Anti-Semite' by that meme?? Is he saying that the Rothschilds are Arab/Jew/Semite? Does he actually attack the claims? No, we just get the usual 'false and frankly ridiculous', like we get from Facebook Fact Checkers and Wiki.
Whoopsie.
Many of us are sick, to death, of the 'Cancel Culture' and blatant illogical attempts at silencing Truth. "Lols" spoke the truth there, and was cancel cultured with nonsense by 'apshamilton'.
So when I replied to this illogical intellectual bully, knowing full well that it would also illogically attack me, while not making any valid point whatsoever, it responded with some more illogical Tripe, that has inspired me to write this blog here to let others know. And yes, I was instantly 'downvoted' by him, and by his people that basically exist to 're-blog' his posts. In standard Hive Cancel Culture fashion.
As usual, there was no Anti-Semitism in my comment either (you can read it yourself), but there was pointing out that people like this apshamilton, instantly knee jerk react to that Cancel Culture Censorship Attack Label, the -Anti-Semite-.
Observe:
So, by someone instantly crying "Anti-Semitism", when there was none, what are we looking at here? A trick. Censorship, followed by Orwellian Doublespeak, to protect the Rothschilds from harm..
Does the "Community", condone this type of illogical intellectual bullying behavior?
This is exactly the system/behavior that is crushing the ability of this blockchain to thrive. That downvote team pretends to be about 'liberty/freespeach/etc'. Talk about blatant Misdirection.
Yes, I am fully aware that I will be 'cancel cultured now'. I am documenting it, and it will be going into my reviews/feedback to all my contacts and outlets, as I am in the process making a nice list of 'alternative' social media/blog sites, for my friends and groups that ask.

I am appalled and will be discontinuing my support of Leo voter, and no longer posting anything on the Leo front end.
Poof goes 50k delegation. Probably a drop in the ocean but I don't fund censorship...
I had recently picked up some LEO and was thinking of staking it and engaging, especially when I saw they were looking for some new blood/content. That assault on Lols however, changed my whole perspective on Leo being a decent alternative. "Welcome" BAM your rep is destroyed.
I cannot and will not support that either. There is no 'financial incentive' worth one's character, morals, honor.
Thank you for your display AND action of Good. You help me keep some faith in Humanity.
In 4 1/2 years on the Steemit and then Hive blockchains, this is the single worst example of downvote abuse I've ever seen, no contest.
And the fact that I helped fund it has really pissed me off.
As a Hive investor who is investing based on the premise that Hive is a censorship free platform - this has just shown very clearly that it's not. It never really was, but this bullshit was not even subtle.
That is me over and out with Leo from this point, they appear to be actively engaged in promoting a range of scams, and silencing anyone who points them out.
I fully agree. I actually gasped with surprise to see that blatant abuse.
And the 'I was afraid to comment again or I would go negative/mute'. Says it all.
Elon Musk, co-founder of PayPal and Tesla Motors, is a fraud and an actor, played by the same guy who plays Scott Wolf of Teen Drama TV series, Party of Five.

I didn't know that about his acting past. Not surprised though. He is fulfilling his role for sure. Stopping people that are interested in 'crypto' from making money. Distracting them with carrots, and making the incoming fall, harm the cryptosphere in general which will usher in regulation that favors the controllers/banks.
This is the original musk who "invented" paypal in 99. The new one is said to only look different due to a "hair transplant"

That is a great reply!
I've now pulled mine too, and have posted my thoughts on the matter.
Thanks for your support.
I didn’t reply on that post because my account would be made invisible with any more down votes. For posting that one comment my account rep was taken down from 45 to 4. I’ve since had a bit of support and it’s now back up to 10, but getting a 41 point reduction in rep for posting one comment was quite a hit! And it is a clear attempt at censorship.
As you say, the point I raised is very relevant to the discussion. On Leo-finance Elon Musk is being relentlessly promoted as “a genius” “a guru” and “the world’s richest man” But none of the accolades are true.
He is actually not even one of the top ten richest people, the mainstream media rich lists are cover ups designed to protect the identities of the globalist dynasties who really have the big money.
Musk is a serial con artist, and he is currently using his influence to manipulate crypto markets, including promoting Dogecoin which is a blatant shitcoin pump and dump..
I agree, and couldn't stand to see what I witnessed there..
Exactly the point of the attack. Question is, why would they want to protect the big wigs, and not point out to the 'team' 'community' 'little guys/gals', the Truth of our financial situation, and the puppets they dangle for the masses to devour....like Musk.
Pumping a fiat 'crypto' joke....at the expense of all legitimate projects... Tsk tsk..
Your meme was dead on the money :)
Keep up the good work!
https://peakd.com/hive-189111/@lols/was-this-the-biggest-downvote-in-the-history-of-hive
Two weeks ago I started out with the usual 25 rep - got up to 36 before getting downvoted to 14.
Then I got up to 45 before that big bitch slap back down to 4...
Wonder how high I can get this time - now up to 12 and counting. But probably not much higher if they read this post :)
And they say the flak is always thickest when you are over the target!
And now for a lol - this meme was downvoted for being "homosexual" - well I guess it sort of is...
Many thanks for the tip, I'll see if I can be like a honey badger and fight off all the lions!
I think I'm missing something here:
Censorship and the year ahead
We've all watched as big tech have moved to censor views and Political sways they disagree with and the effect it's having on the populus.
Hive fixes this. We are and always have been pro hive. I want to document this.
Also, I give you a rundown of what I plan for this year and the coming years for brofund, BRO and BRO silver.
Enjoy folks :)

He lives in Israel, an objective opinion is not likely to be forthcoming from one so intimately tied to the question.
Are the Ashkenazim even properly Semetic?
Is Israel 'properly' constituted?
So many questions,...
So many willing to bully others to acquire dominance.
