RE: Writing posts and getting followers is only 50% of what you are suppose to do here. CURATION EXPLAINED.

in #steemit7 years ago

I'm very new to steemit and have discovered some great quality content and comments, and am happy to see very little spam so far (although I'm already starting to get annoyed by comments left by bots). So in a sense I agree with your argument here, but on the other hand, isn't this up-voting and down-voting a disguised form of censorship? That's a question I've been asking myself, after reading a few books by E.M Nicolay about the nature of our multi-dimensional reality. What we consider good or bad in this reality has no value judgement in higher dimensions, we're just here in this lower dimension to experience and it is our choice whether we take the "positive" or "negative" path; they are equally valid. You justify your voting behavior based on whether the system is being abused but who is the judge of that? I hope you don't take offense of this reply, this is something that is currently on my mind, and I truly don't have a good answer for it yet.
