Steemit Developer @sneak Hides Two Highly Revealing Posts Related To Verifiable Student Actors Involved in Florida School Shooting
This has happened twice now. @sneak hid the first post three days ago on February 21. I then made a post about the hiding of the other post by @sneak and included an explanation of how I remedied the situation. That explanation was to Steemit member @nationalpark. I also discussed this situation with a few other important Steemit members in the comment section of the two other posts. On February 24th @sneak hid the post addressing the explanation. He also hid my newest post which is a highly revealing condensed version of the large post that I put together to help better explain the verifiable (via their own Facebook pages) student actor aspects of the Parkland shooting event. That post also reveals some very important new material on other child actors.
All three posts are linked here -

Explanatory comment (offshoot discussion) hidden by @sneak -
I believe Steem was created to resist censorship and most steemian don't like censorship. However, before you get my support, I would like to ask a few questions:
The photos are graphic, would you consider to add a warning at the top or use nsfw tag?
Do you have the copyrights of the photos your posted?
Are you sure you can post the photos of the minors? Do you have the permission of the parents of the minors?

All images come from open Facebook pages that the individuals chose to post on the Internet themselves to their own Facebook pages. I actually acquired them from someone else who collaborates with me from time to time, thus, I believe they fall under fair use, particularly in view of the fact these are now well known figures currently under scrutiny in the public eye and who are being researched heavily by the general public.
They are boosting their own presence on major 'news' networks around the world, thus, one would figure also that they would expect such scrutiny or else restrict public viewing of their pages to prevent it. Another way to look at it is in reverse, would they hope to have their images seen by talent scouts for their acting ability as shown on their Facebook pages if it should further their acting careers? For example, I have compiled hundreds of images of the White Helmets in Syria (who are terrorists posing (acting) as rescuers). I have researched them thoroughly for the past two years.
I consider it a public service and for the good of humanity that I help reveal their al-Qaeda deception. Should I have asked them for permission to use their images? Would the terrorists have removed the images that they previously placed on their own open Facebook pages if I had ask them for their permission? You can see where this goes.
The fair use doctrine recognizes that rigid application of copyright laws in certain cases would be unfair or may inappropriately stifle creativity or stop people from creating original works, which would harm the public. So, the doctrine allows people to use someone else’s copyrighted work without permission in certain circumstances. Common examples include: criticism, commentary, news reporting, teaching, scholarship and research.
There is actually only one supposedly graphic photo amongst those used for the post and it is blurry and shot from a distance and shows a dark skinned woman who appears deceased on the floor (she is receiving no medical attention, thus the assumption). I left a message with that image that CNN's own website does not feature a dark skinned female amongst the 17 deceased victims they have posted images of online. Thus, its possible she is an actor also.
The rest of the images that appear to look graphic are actually images from the make up artist that administers their teen antigun advocates acting troupe. They are fake injuries made to look real, hence the reason I posted them. The nsfw tag is now attached, although I don't really think it is necessary. I am simply posting it to placate the few people that are concerned in regards to such.

I flagged his post because baseless conspiracy nonsense like this doesn't deserve a cent in rewards. I couldn't care less about what is or isn't tagged NSFW. Shitposters (and apparently whiners who don't know what censorship is) shouldn't be earning here, in my sole personal opinion. I speak for no one but myself; any professional affiliation I may or may not have is irrelevant to my voting, as I vote with my own stake and no one else's.

Downvotes aren't censorship, dipshit. Put your tinfoil hat back on.

On such an important post it would have been professional of you to explain your desire to downvote the material. Incidentally, you haven't addressed the material and have instead resorted to demagoguery. Thus, your mentioning of tin foil hats says more about the person using the slur than the one it is directed against. Sad to see that one of the most important players at Steemit acts this way. You have also downvoted to hide a message from @nationalpark in this threads comment section.
On edit: I see you have tried to hide another one from fair public viewing. So now you have hidden two posts and the second one you just hid had no graphic images. The images in the post are of the students from Parkland who are verified via their own Facebook accounts as kids who are involved in the fields of acting, reporting and movie making. There are also make up artist images there of various types of fake wounds. I welcome your explanation as to why you hid that post and the other one before it. I would figure a Steemit developer would be very happy to have posts that receive over 3,000 views. Maybe I am wrong about that?

Well said, I am astonished at how well you kept your cool. There should be no reason for flat out name calling on this platform. It defintely says alot about the person posting the words.

Thanks @dinodog1. Sometimes the censorship actually works in my favor, as it highlights the actions of the person conducting the censorship and helps to paint a larger picture based upon those actions. Thus, if someone so high up amongst the leadership at Steemit shows this type of behavior I consider it a community service, and a service to humanity, for me to help highlight that type of behavior. It may end up being addressed by other top tier players who have a stake in Steemit doing well as a free speech platform and they may decide to help change things for the better. Who knows? Its particularly important to highlight people who hide information, especially in this new age of information censorship and control.
One thing I am astutely aware of these days is that there is no room for emotions in geopolitics. My responses to @sneak certainly aren't emotional and I appreciate you pointing that out, on the other hand his responses are quite unprofessional for a lead developer on the platform. Thanks for your comment. Kind regards.
Anyone throwing around ad hominem attack and claiming 'tinfoil hat' slurs needs to back up the position with scientifically valid evidence and logic that addresses all points if they wish to avoid appearing bigoted and irrelevant. (note: tinfoil is archaic, all the cool kids use aluminium now).
Thanks @ura-soul. The original post he hid now has over 5,650 views. Thus, I think people are definitely interested in the material. I would hope a Steemit developer like @sneak would appreciate the eyes on the platform and the help of making it grow.
I get called a conspiracy theorist no matter how many times I prove my assertions.
Tin foil is useful. When I'm done wearing it I can use it to cook bacon on my grill or make a cardboard sword shiny. I can throw it at my dog or wrap food in it. So many uses outside keeping aliens and assholes from reading my thoughts...like they could stand the drama in my mind.
Seriously, to the three individuals flagging these posts, I hope your feelings feel better.
This.
Also, @sneak just landed on my shit list.
Mine too... just another tool
Mines stainless and manufactured in China!!
Note that flagging to invisibility is undeniably suppression, and thus is, by definition, censorship, @sneak.
Congratulations you have been flagged to almost invisibility.
Thank god(insert any steemit whale name here) it is not completely invisible.
Do you know what it takes to get flagged into Oblivion?
Flagging, isn't it more like the school bully pushing you down on the floor? Doesn't really hurt you but shows everyone what an ass he is?
I follow @skeptic because he inspires me. He was flagged into negative rep multiple times by @berniesanders, and refused to just give up. His rep is now almost as high as mine.
@berniesanders, OTOH, is still at -17 IIRC, since @dan gave him a little taste of his own medicine.
I am sooooo gonna be flagged into the neg! I name names, and this invokes the flags.
But, I refuse to pussyfoot around. I reckon this conversation involves those particular individuals, regardless of whether they like it or not, so I don't shy away from the consequences of speaking plainly and forthrightly.
You are the kind of man that makes this world tolerable!
I will be your friend even when I disagree with you. But here I stand with you support you and agree!
There is way too much bullying on Steemit by people that should take the higher road.
Isn't it better to teach the rest of us how to act by example.
Time to do as I do not do as I say.
We must never stoop to their methods of name calling and character assassination. That is exactly why we are on Steemit to begin with to get away from that mainstream media BS.
I am pretty sure this is a CIA/NSA owned and controlled site. Everything is the same here and the SJW have the biggest voice.
BTW Berniesanders can just upvote himself right back to 68 in about one day. He has so many accounts. If you look at what happened it is still Haejin and his other accounts attacking Bernie. Dan only attacks @ned
Kinda like the Trump stripper /porn stories distracting us from the clinton and fbi crimes.
There must be some real crimes going on here and this BS is to keep us all distracted.
LOL The @haejin thing is relatively recent. the @dan thing was some months ago.
I'm pretty sure the CIA has it's tentacles in every orifice it can reach. Despite that, I note the Steem blockchain makes the data available to the public, and that is perhaps the greatest threat to the CIA that the world has ever devised.
Right now blackmail and brownstone ops, as well as the Steele dossier, are possible to use to control public policy because the data isn't available to the public. Secrets you keep that others know give them power over you, including lies like the Steele dossier.
When our 'public servants' are surveilled AND that data is available on the blockchain, there'll be no more Dennis Hasterts riding the blackmail train to 3rd in line to the presidency, because people wouldn't have elected him to powerful public office knowing he was a kiddy diddler, as the CIA certainly did.
Steemit and the blockchain is the greatest threat to blackmailers the world has ever known.
I like your style, good sir.
Number of accounts don't much matter, its all about that Steem Power.
Good thing then that it's impossible to make a post invisible by flagging.
Well, you just made my comment invisible. Dunno why. All it said was:
Too bad you're not better acquainted with veracity. You'd see just how well you proved my point.
Seriously? You sicced @blacklist-a on me for that?
Skin is a thing. It's really good to have on your butt, cuz it keeps it from getting hurt.
followed ;)
No but it certainly makes it LESS-visible, which is closer to 'invisible' than 'visible' on the color spectrum.
@sneak -- the more I read posts from you, the more convinced I am that you would have been one of the ones gleefully tossing books into a bonfire before digital text existed.
Perhaps you should get a job at Twitter or Facebook instead?
Good thing indeed.
Whatever is up, they sure as hell underestimated the attention these flaggings would bring your posts.
Good work man. Followed you as I am eager to build my list of actual freethinkers. If we are ever to find the catch on this platform, we can only do it if we stick together.
Quite true. The main post has now surpassed 15,000 views in 5 days.
That's the ticket! Use their censorship to expose their hoax!
The post is now up to 30,000 views and still getting eyes on. @sneaks method of hiding important highly revealing material has definitely backfired on him.
The proximity to Ned and the Steemit devs is somewhat troubling.
Incidentally I stumbled upon this interview yesterday, good chance to feel the guy.
https://steemit.com/steemit/@ruwan/i-filmed-this-video-of-ned-pkattera-and-sneak-talking-about-the-smts-and-the-future-of-steemit
I hope his flagging was a personal choice due to his worldview, and not serving a greater agenda. If this was due to agenda, we may have a big problem on our hands in reference to Steemit's objectivity. I pray I'm wrong and sneak just can't fathom that these events are staged. Anybody who denies false flags and staged events despite the massive amounts of evidence generally means well, wanting to protect other people from "fake news" because they cannot leave their own frame of reference.
I hope the post gathers 100 k more.
It is one of two major WTF moments lately in regards to core Steemit people acting in a most eyebrow-raising way. The other was of course the fallout between dan and ned.
Judging from his behavior I think its likely a personal choice. It is still highly unprofessional and disappointing the way he has behaved, just the same. Its also cause for concern when any higher up in an organization that is supposedly built upon the concept of promoting free speech chooses to act in such a manner. The hide feature, as used by heavy hitters, is essentially a form of soft censorship regardless of what @sneak tries to state otherwise. @valued-customer's posts in this thread sum it all up quite well.
I'd also like to thank @haejin. I was prepared to pay the price for my comments, as I am incapable of doing much to counter flags from @sneak and @bloom. @haejin stepped in and took care of that, and I appreciate it very much!
Just keep reposting and we will support it. There is nothing offensive about this. It's like calling an investigator a conspiracy theorist for looking into a murder.
Thanks @palikari Will do.
Yep, just resorting to ad hominem attacks
Seems as if there are many people on Steemit so jacked up about the earning rewards that they tend to overlook the fact that some people post for the benifit of all. @clarityofsignal I may not agree with or believe anything you post, but I sure want to see it. It is up to me to do my own research and arrive at my own conclusions about the information in your posts. It is not my job to flag you in order to protect the community. Yes there needs to be some basic guidlines for governance on the platform. Steemit is not perfect in this regard I think most people would agree. Anyway, keep up the good work, keep posting. If you enjoy social experiments, I think Steemit is a great example. In my opinion, the payout rewards which lead to these flagging wars, often show us a less desireable side of our human nature.
This is a basic problem that reduces every aspect of society to profiteering. Society is much more than an economy, and there are far more profitable things than profit. Many Steemit users exemplify this. Fortunately, there's only so much harm such profiteers can do on a social media platform. Some people whore out their mothers for cash.
Kinda hard to get to that level of inhumanity on a blog. Sooner or later, someone'll figger it out tho.
Thanks!
It's cooperation that will bring them down. They've lost control of the narrative and have gone into full damage control mode... it's great to watch and even greater to be a part of...
The good thing is the tighter they try to clamp down, the tighter the people band together
Without cooperation on our side that is able to overwhelm the sheep that just do as they're told, it won't save us against what's coming.
@freebornangel recently posted about China's total surveillance state, and social control system, that changes the ring on your phone when you call, or are called by, one the the blacklisted. Folks on that list can't buy plane tickets, for example.
@maxigan and @x22reports have both predicted the power shifting to the east globally, to China. The EU is now drafting all kinds of laws against 'fake news', and Whatsapp, owned by Fakebook is essentially doing what China does on phones with material Fakebook, the owner of Whatsapp, doesn't like.
They say it's always darkest before the dawn. Let's hope dawn approaches soon, because they're coming for us, too. @benswann just came on Steemit after going dark for a year. He also just got hit with a large flag. I saw it on the list of the most heavily flagged Steemers I turned out to be on and was notified of a mention by Gina.
That was interesting!
While I hope it's about to dawn a new day of freedom and freedom of speech globally, I fear the dark night of disinformation is yet sucking more of the light of truth from out of our sight.
We'll have to be watchful. In Honduras right now, US trained police are rounding up protesters after electoral hyjinx there.
The enemedia won't televise the counter-revolution. We'll have to have each other's backs.
Thanks!
Thanks @dinodog1. When this situation first occurred the other day I specified that I would transfer all cryptocurrency derived from those posts to @PatrickLancaster who I know as a friend and does charity work for affected kids and families in the breakaway regions of East Ukraine. That declaration still stand for this post as well. I have never been about the money, although I am also not against it. I do what I do simply because I believe humanity deserves better than what we are getting from our current world 'leaders' who are deceptive assholes that are enriching themselves from war and surveillance/control over the rest of us.
I hope more people see my example and take similar action to bring the truth to light as best they can. My personal view is that humanity needs an evolution, not a revolution. I think we can do this simply by continuing to share important information and finding ways to work around the elites mainstream media wall of propaganda, censorship and deception that is placed in front of us. That is a challenge that I gladly accept. Kind regards for looking at the material even if you may disagree with it. I don't mind and I hope it is simply taken into consideration by discerning, fair-minded people.
Amen, by the way I followed Patrick because of your posts. Humanity deserves better. In all my travels all over the world I learned we have more in common with each other than we believe. The governments create the majority of the human suffering and there seems to be a few select people controlling them. Hopefully one day we can evolve.
Well stated.
That is one of the most profound statements I have been fortunate enough to read.
Thanks!
Thank you for all your lengthy comments addressing this situation above. Great work.
Lucky for you (and him, I guess), you're able to do that no matter how many flags he receives. In that capacity, I'm not sure what anyone is complaining about.
That is one huge bonus to Steemit. to be able to see what others flag and be the judge yourself.
It's really unfortunate that a subject like this where everybody needs to hear the other side of the story is being blocked and for no good reason. There are so many other stories coming out now punching holes in what the media's narrative. The story is just another attempt at gaining control over the people through fear. I hope this becomes apparent sooner than later.

STOPSometimes wealthy Steemians will wage their influence in order to stymie access to information that they don't agree with. Apparently, this nasty little ingredient called flagging was baked into the Steemit cake a long time ago. I call it soft-censorship. [read on..]
I wanna say nice job.
I am sorry to see you being abused by a member of steemit.
I am just a minnow and can't give much help. but I have resteemed and upvoted to help mitigate the action of one that took away the actions and rewards of many.
I find it a lot easier and less stressful to ignore content I do not like,agree with,or if I have an issue with someone to just block them..
If I am going to flag someone it would have to be a community action,working with the consensus of community good.
I find the actions of these killer whale bad for the platform,they are one person and act as Gods. What you going to do flag me back,hahahaa....I didn't hurt you...I just made your dream smaller...
That's imho.
Now do have get flagged for it. have to start at a neg. rep. in the morning
Seen it happen.
But I could not sit by ,and not say, do something.
Namaste
Hello! Thank you so much for this post! This @sneak character has been flagging my work as well on the Parkland Shooting Hoax. My work is now being hidden from view: https://steemit.com/davidhogg/@fakenewsreport/david-hogg-memes-davidhoggmemes
Here's the flags on that post:

This is an attack on #FreedomofSpeech and should NOT be acceptable! We have already lost all our work and channels on youtube... now we have these pukes on #Steemit using similar tactics!
Thanks - Re-steemed!
Here's my steemit article on this (video included)
https://steemit.com/steemit/@fakenewsreport/steemit-posts-are-being-flagged-and-censored-florida-shooting-hoax-coverup
Thanks for this @fakenewsreport. Good to see your post which brings the actions of @sneak more into the light. If he thinks he's gonna discourage folks by acting as such he is sadly mistaken and I will be continuing to make sure I place solid highly revealing information in remarks to his rude comments and other posts I will make on his downvotes.
This school event at Parkland looks to me like not so much a gun grab but more of a control grab and an excuse by the PTB and their social media giants for a purge of important truth channels. Seems like they are using it to try to contain other lies and deceptions. They are stacking their chaos on top of chaos in order to create more confusion and take more control over the citizenry's perceptions of reality. I believe it is still continuing to fail in that regard. People aren't really buying it.
@sneak seems to be attempting to lead that shut down of truth seekers here at Steemit. Alas, its the block chain and all he can do is a hide with his huge voting power, but that behavior can also backfire and be used against him. There are many of us who aren't here for the money so much as the ability to post freely without censorship, so maybe he underestimates that aspect. I consider this a battle worth fighting for, and gladly take up the challenge as I strongly dislike opinionated controllers who attempt to restrict the free flow of information from others.
A big thanks to you for doing a bit of digging on @sneak so people can see him for what he really is. I'll add your link to my other post so more people can see what is going on.
