It isn't quite capitalism though. If you were giving your own money each time you voted, that would be capitalism and that would be perfectly acceptable. In our situation, we have been chosen to give away someone else's money as a community. As part of that privilege, we must also fulfill a responsibility to choose how those funds are expended. We all have some say in that and part of that is choosing whether to add, subtract, or ignore a post. We can do all of those.
Flagging has a negative connotation because of other platforms, but it really isn't the same thing here. I mean it is because they rolled it into the same button, but they are really 2 different functions. It's unfortunate that flags must be used to downvote currently, but we steemians must go with what we have for the time being.
