Hmmmm I never encounter one on hive bullying since I mainly post art and stuff. However I left twitter for federated servers and also to hive as well. This is concerning for me since I'm helping with my LIA with a Hive Account.
Oh I've had a bit more than a taste, just not by this particular bully. Posts systematically downvoted for months, I would estimate a good third of total investigative/research posts and those voicing nonconformist politically incorrect views downvoted over the course of the year. Thanks to 'altleft', 'smooth', 'curangel' trail, and others. There seems to be a whole gang of them, and it seems coordinated. When one leaves off, another steps in. More than once I've had entire strings of posts hit, up to 7-10 in a row. Granted, you've gotten the worst of it in regards to azircon, but this is clearly a coordinated effort leveled against targeted users, I second @zedikaredirect, it looks a lot like a cointelpro operation. They are and will continue to be exposed; the more brazen their cowardly acts become, the more they shall be called out for their petty tyranny.
It's cartel action, pure and simple, as you have said. There is a "consensus" about what constitutes value, and it overrides the consensus of users and their votes. It's an arbitrary fixing of the value of posts, detached from the will of those who wish to support the content, based on the subjective determination that nonconformist views are worthless. On the contrary, they do not lack value as evidenced by the many who see value in them, but rather threaten the perceived monopoly on narrative. When the will of a few can override the will of a majority based exclusively on the power in the hands of the few, there is tyranny.
No different than Big Tech policies, apart from being done within the perception of 'decentralization'. But this "consensus" by a few with greatest power is itself a centralization of power, centralized off chain and then enacted on chain. It's fraudulent to the core, and only continues because of the silence of so many who know better. Keep exposing the madness, their fall will come. I will check out operation Erika.
Some of us can never utter a single word ever again on this blockchain, and are reduced to this as a short term solution (very short).
You would be amazed how two-faced some "so-called" pro free speech/freedom lovers/anti-authoritarians are really all about....it's all a sick joke with a mask that has been ripped off. They only believe in their own freedom, an nothing more - you only get "freedom" if you give them more (of everything), and constantly pander to their egos. They are literally dictators with a mask on.
I dont believe in any of this anymore - it is just another and more brilliant way to control people and do everything they claim to oppose....it's literally disgusting. Be careful who you think your likeminded friends are around here.
Who. me, or @jasonliberty ?
He's only had a tiny taste of it - A teaser! lol.... see my 6 month blitzing...on every...single... post (and many comments)
His post says everything about the toxicity of hive, and how it'll destroy itself if left to continue on as is...
