I truly think that these people are destroying steemit. If you don't like something or disagree with someone, then why are you reading the post? and if you do strongly disagree, you can say and explain why you disagree but to downvote is just childish and it says a lot of who they are in my mind and seriously these people should be banned from steemit.
People have the right to say what they believe.

As I understand it, Sneak is intending to 'police' the rewards pool to attempt to stop things he disagrees with from being rewarded and from reaching the trending page. No explanation has been provided other than that he simply doesn't like the content. It is an unsophisticated and immature approach, no doubt. :/
You are absolutely correct. Flagging without giving arguments is pure bullshit. 'Science is settled about vaccines' is not argument.
Selfishness ruins everything. You can't mix selfish people with unselfish people and expect to get a well functioning community. Incentives and accountability can help, but I am skeptical about whether the latter alone can ever solve the problem.
IOW, for a community to function well, there must be some way to expel or "kill" people who break the moral rules of the community. The ultimate incentive is that if you don't conform to those norms, you will be eliminated.
