How is Yom HaShoah relevant?

If one of the whales (say, bernie) started posting antisemitic content, it would not be flagged into insignificance. If someone invests a pile of money in enough SP to promote that type of content, it will be. Money rules, as you've said. Respect is bought, free speech is purchased.

Sort:  

But a whale who did this would be destroying the value of the Steem platform and thus damaging their investment.
That's why whales don't post blatantly anti-semitic content.

On Yom HaShoah, in a world or rising anti-semitism, we need to choose between the centralised censorship approach of Facebook or the self-regulatory approach of Steem. I choose the later.
