I think you're forgetting how the flagging system works. It solely exists for the purposes of taking rewards away whether they're due to someone copying someone else's content or due to disagreements.
Read my post. You'll notice that the user I'm talking about actually worked hard on his post and it was all original content. But he got caught in berniesander's war against EOS and had his rewards reduced to absolute zero for a while until Dan helped the guy out and got him out of that place.
My post isn't here to argue against flagging. My post is here to simply point out how berniesanders is damaging the ecosystem here simply because he wanted to take things personally and start attacking everyone who talks about EOS. The point of my post is to point out this forced censorship by ONE MAN who has too much power and time on his hands. The point of my post is to show the hypocrisy of berniesanders and how he's reaping the rewards unfairly with his bot army and how this was the reason he used to get rid of another user not so long ago.
If you seriously think people can't be censored and that their rewards can't be taken away then you are still in a bubble.... Go ahead and take a look at the EOS tag. Check out their trending and promoted posts and you'll notice around 50 down votes on each of them by berniesander's alts. A lot of those posts have fallen victim to his onslaught and they have fallen off the trending page. THAT is how censorship works here.
This post is an example as well. The post has been hidden due to down votes which basically means that it would never appear on hot or trending. Mr Bernie can't stop people from saying things but he sure as hell can make those things go away if he wants with the kind of power he has spread out over hundreds of accounts.
