RE: Don't legally posion your kids please! You probably don't know that you are doing it...

Can anyone tell me why this post and its pictures have been hidden? I thought there was not censorship in SteemIt, but this post was "censored"? I could have posted this in Facebook or any other "censored" social network without having it "hidden".

Sort:  

If you look at the "votes" you can see who flagged it. There are two people who did and one in particular has a high rank here apparently.

There can be "censorship" of this particular kind on any website connected to Steem. What can't happen is someone deleting or hiding your posts from the blockchain itself.

Well, it was discussed already and even from a whale and they all agreed that censorship should not happen in SteemIt and that downvoting for ideological reasons is wrong. Downvoting is there so quality content gets promoted and not for promoting content of a particular ideology.

That shows that your ideology is in line with dictatorships which are the ones that think that censorship is right instead of freedom of speech... well done ;)

There are all sorts of opinions on Steem.

The only thing that a few downvotes from me does is make sure that people like you don't rise too fast in this ecosystem. I chose only to downvote particular comments (unlike a lot of people do) and this won't even hold you back that much.

If downvotes meant I was actually preventing you from posting, my actions would have been different.

Again, that is the wrong use of the voting system. The purpose of the downvoting is to promote quality content not to degrade content that doesn't fit in your ideological realm, that is censorship and fascism.

Now you have to think what you are then...

Again, that is the wrong use of the voting system.

No, it's actually the right use of the voting system. We are intended to vote according to our own preferences. You don't deserve upvotes or protection from the opinion of others simply for being on Steem.

The purpose of the downvoting is to promote quality content not to degrade content that doesn't fit in your ideological realm

It's not up to you to decide what I consider quality content. I downvote what I think is bad enough to be worth downvoting.

that is censorship and fascism.

It is neither.
However, noone is going to beat you over the head if you still decide that you want to secede.

Certainly, your are a pig fascist that believe in censorship, well done you must feel very proud, hahaha
