RE: Is Steemit Really Censor Resistant? Is It the Best Place for Ideas to Flow Freely?
Well, it's interesting, and I think more clarity about the rules are for sure needed for the community to grow. I had even less knowledge about censorpship though, I've only seen people with reputation below zero, but when I look at what they post, they seem to be doing plagiarism, or directly insulting others.
Right. I think plagiarism is definitely a clear negative, and I appreciate the bots who scout those out. But, like you say, about insulting someone, when is that free speech and when does it cross the line of violent speech that should be regulated? All questions that I have.
I was downvoted for simply talking with someone @berniesanders didn't like. That's tantamount to censorship. That's nothing more than a dictatorship system. Meaning, there's no true freedom.
