Cultural Marxism is still Marxism :)

What a great Steemit promotional campaign this would make! When I first joined I was amazed at how well Steemit functions without any kind of moderators. In a sense you could say the community moderates itself using the flag mechanism, and in general that does seem to be an effective way to get rid of the occasional troll. I do worry a bit that flagging could turn into a form of censorship in the hands of a powerful whale, but so far those worries have proved unfounded.

I agree, to be honest I'd like to see the flags kept in the hands of the steemcleaners crew and possibly a select few moderators the community could vote for...

But I have seen flag abusers punished as well so maybe that is how they are dealing with it, either way it is a surprisingly friendly place with a very warm community feel.....

Thanks for your kind words :)

That was one impression that also struck me very strongly when I first joined. Reddit and Facebook are absolute cesspits compared to Steemit. I think having an actual financial reward at stake acts as a powerful motivator for people to behave themselves on here. ;-)

[majes]

Yes it does, and also the reputation system. There is no profit in trolling lol...

Steemit is such a great platform, I'm a lover for steem and the fact that we have freedom of speech on the internet world is great.

[majes]

Yes I have been very impressed since I joined Steemit and I have seen many positive things come from it..

Thanks for your response :)

How.. not what I have seen

[majes]

Is that a question or a statement ?

[ianstrat]

Question???

[majes]

Steemit rewards it's members while the others seem more and more to censor free speech...

re: reddit, or worse you get one of the moderators or admins abusing the insidious shadowban feature, meant only to waste spambot time but frequently used against real people.

[majes]

Exactly :)

Of course...with freedom comes responsibility.
It does seem at Steemit you are held responsible for what you express.Thank you for posting @majes. Enjoyed reading all the replies. Freedom to express thought....Steemit is the place to be.

Thank you for the Resteem and your assistance. Very kind of you @majes.

[majes]

You are most welcome my friend. I am always willing to help any time you need me :)

Blessings.
