RE: "Code Is Law (Only When I Want, Otherwise It's Abuse)" - The Shaming Syndicate Of Steemit - Our Own Brand of SJWs & Social Repression

in #steem7 years ago

What a load of horseshit.

Let me put it simply, as we've been around this before. Down voting / flagging is part of the free market, it is not against it. It's not censorship etc. etc., but disagreement. It doesn't really matter what you or I say about it, it works without us.

Code is law, period, but that doesn't make the particular laws just. And laws can be changed, but thankfully not easily. So saying code is law doesn't do much when discussing ethics and change. We literally can't go against the system here, it's rock solid - the single exception would be unintended holes such as the DAO. For the record, this was a hack. You fail to understand that exploiting a bug is still a hack.

The shaming and virtue signalling I could care less about, you find all kind of social arguments in social situations, some fair and some unfair. We're all free to exercise our own judgement here.

One other particular point of contention, the Terms of Service relate to steemit.com, so point 17.1.3 applies to the website not the blockchain, which is what all bots run on. I know you know that if you'd bothered to think beyond one step.

What did you disagree with when flagging my post 100% with denied payout? Just curious. And was the resteem intentional?

All intentional. Just messin' with you @beanz, I wanted you to wonder and maybe shake you out of your funk 😉

lol. You're a strange one lol. Good to know there are people still having some fun.

😎 hope your day is now that little bit stranger and maybe brighter 😁

Good job! Thanks to @lexiconical you have planted 0.13 tree to save Abongphen Highland Forest in Cameroon. Help me to plant 1,000,000 trees and share my Steem Power to the others. Selfvoting is prohibited, but that should be the reason to spread the world to protect our precious environment. Check out profile of our conservation association @kedjom-keku and the founder/coordinator @martin.mikes to get more information about our conservation program. My current SP is 14274.08. Help me to plant more trees with your delegated SP.

Thanks a lot,
your @treeplanter
