RE: TOP 5 REASONS why eating meat is NOT a personal choice...

thanks a lot! In terms of down voting, AFAIK it is only supposed to be used to filter out spam and illegal content and is frowned upon using it to censor posts you don't like. I think commenting saying that it is horrible is probably a good idea though because people usually take comments more seriously on steemit than youtube. I'll do this now!

Firstly I am still learning about this site and after a long conversation with @ura-soul (which is now up on his channel) my understanding is that down voting can be used however anyone sees fit. It’s an anarchic structure and we can choose to use it abs we like. Besides, one of the reasons we can flag is abusive material. If there was child porn or violent content showing babies on a spit, we could would and should downvote. So why not pictures of dead lamb? I think it’s a fun way to go and fully justified. I’m going to write about it shortly.

yeah, definitely a good point. I guess it just comes back down to battling the status quo and the vegan movement is making good progress.
