RE: Will you FLAG me if we disagree?
I have seen some censorship flagging. I believe that it is excessive and not what Steemit is about. If someone disagrees with your opinion, you should NOT flag them.
If someone is posting malicious content that can cause harm to another member of the community (more than just hateful words), THAT Post should likely be flagged.
At least that's my $0.02 :)
@evolved08gsr, thanks for commenting. I appreciate it.
I completely agree that we need ways to protect member of our community from being harmed. We have a great opportunity to build other up. We should work together to do that.
I agree that we need to stick together!
The struggle is when a "whale" flags a post, many of us little guys have to stick up for the post that was flagged, which potentially leaves us vulnerable to the same flagging. Abuse of power is just as real here on Steemit as it is in the Real World, unfortunately.
Good point. The rubber meets the road when we put ourselves in a vulnerable position to defend someone else in a vulnerable position. Thanks for that addition to the conversation!
