If this is truly the case, I'm getting scared of the community. One flick will wipe us minnows. :'(
I just hope that there is good reasoning behind it all. I'm getting confused, but all I can do is just observe. There are two sides of a coin, and I don't know which is the right one.
I don't believe in censorship. For someone reading the above all comments and opinions should be accessible by everyone so people like you who are undecided can read and gain the info needed for you to make your individual choice. Don't be scared of the bullies they will back wear themselves out eventually. I've followed you and wish you luck! update: PLEASE SCROLL DOWN THE COMMENTS TO SEE THE CENSORING IN ACTION!
Interesting times on the Steemit platform indeed, but I'm not worried at all. So many people on here with really good intentions and contributing amazing content. We will eventually deal with all the problems we encounter, and the beta version will have to be improved at some point.
I believe you'll be proved right!
Been censored already! Please copy, paste and post. This censoring whale must be stopped.
Thanks for the new upvotes that have brought the post back to life! Thank you!
Profit. To be more specific, short term profit. That's the entire reason for the way the platform is designed, and makes this possible.
