So we can all post whatever crap we want no consequences to it. So along with the no down votes then how would the NSFW images be taken care of that ignore that rule, or all the blatant hate speech, or threats of violence. No the down vote needs to stay, and whether people like @berniesanders or @grumpycat, or we will see what @madpuppy does, they are needed. With whales and some witnesses and other large account holders becoming so called "victims" they want to do something now? I am sorry, but their attempts are plainly pitiful. If the large account holders, and the witnesses were so damned concerned about this they would have aided @berniesanders against that haejin person and his benefactor. So before making a statement about the "MAJOR design flaw in Steem" and saying it needs to be removed give your real reason for it's removal, give a solution to what you perceive as a problem, or try to do something about it.

@drakos, @grumpycat,@berniesanders, and a few others are at least trying to do something about what they perceive as the problem. What are you doing about the problem. I can tell you what I am doing about it. I actually think that both sides are doing what they think is best, I think that if steem inc, or the owners of steemit felt that something needed to be done they would. I think that on April 15th everyone, every single individual should make a @grumpycat post and then make nine or twenty or 100 comments to their own post and give themselves 100% upvotes. Break the bank on American Tax day deadline. Then, maybe steemit owners will see that, "uhh captain we have a problem".

But I am sure the reason you don't like the down vote is because you like looking at trash for free.
