Psychologically speaking, negative reinforcement is the least effective means of persuasion. If it were, murder would have ceased when death became the punishment.
People who boo and jeer simply have run out of words.

the problem is not the opinion. The problem is the power law distribution giving the vote a weight. The vote now represents the stake the person voted holds. Not the intelligence, not logic but only the stake.
And why should the stake leverage your opinion? Why is that beneficial for exploring quality content and making social decisions within the DAO? It isn't. One person -one vote --> equal distribution of the social layer --> counteracting the clustering in the 21 Witness dPOS System = effective decentralisation.
This is exactly would those people don't get. Decentralization is a binary property (either you have a central authority or you dont). Distribution is vanilla. The redundancy comes from a combination of both properties.
when you have a decentralized dPOS System with 21 super-representatives but without equal distribution of power --> you end up with a consortium chain/ a concentrated piece of shit. But they don't get it :)
the inventor of Steem gets it, but what does he know?
Explain how this is "curation":
A big enough down vote causes the post to be hidden. "Duh"

Enough targeted downvoting from big enough accounts would cause anyone to leave Steemit. How is that NOT censorship? Go:

p.s. I'm not the one downvoting you. I don't really downvote as I don't see the point in it. And honestly I would rather people could see your side of the conversation so it's actually quite unfortuante that all your comments have been downvoted in this way.
