Go back a month or so on his profile and you'll see they're still all zeroed out. Most comments too.

I was just referring to this post. There are bigger issues at play in regards to DVs way beyond holding those people within the truth community accountable. I have watched tribe/kenny support very good content and people for years. He takes extreme pride in helping others. In fact in real life, a lot of my friends look up to him because of his efforts with feeding people and want to work with him as some kind of goal. It is way cool. I discussed these downvotes with him on the phone and on messenger. Just as Truthforce mentioned the flags are concentrated on a very small amount of content and the reality is that not much can be done when a @ura-soul gets a $200+ downvote for well written informative content that is well sourced and non confrontational not too mention anti-centralization. Kenny's his main concern is doing what he can to support good content and help people without causing undue suffering. He wants to see people eat and survive and especially off Hive. Dude is in it to win it with Hive and wants lift people up in the process.

While Kenny and Truth do have power within the Hive community, right now they are all we have as far as significant staked support for truth centered content well there is v4vapid, enki and xeldal of course.

We are a decentralized community and here because we don't trust centralized governments and organizations that have no interest in representing it constituents, while stealing our resources and limiting our rights as individuals. It should not come as a surprise when people like logic start to react to DVs as they seem restricting of freedom of speech, which is a US constitution thing and not a UN human rights thing. My issues with the DVs is that there is no clear way to understand why they happen. In this case yeah people gonna get mad being tagged over and over again and have to comb through this post to follow the point. It gets to be mind numbing reading the same thing over and over again. But in my world tagging me is welcomed. So when someone tags me it is like ok cool someone cares.

I have tagged these Downvoters. Some do not answer, some do. I was actually surprised when @altleft and I had a fairly decent conversation or when @gtg gave me an honest response. Can we not ask the Downvoters directly what the issue is and how we can mitigate the DVs? I mean if that is really the issue then lets try to have healthy and productive conversations with people like @themarkymark and @acidyo. Although Acid was pretty clear with his message in the post and I haven't seen him flag ura which anymore is my main concern. Ura is a very solid dude making incredible content. Acid by the way was one of my biggest supporters on Steem. Lots of support from him. He honestly is a picky curator and I can understand downvoting a post like this from his perspective as he has made his perspective clear over the past year in regards to curation.

There has to be a healthy way to start a conversation and bring dissenting parties together in order to create a more healthier environment on chain.

Maybe since the Witnesses represent all of us with consensus voting, run these nodes/servers which are scattered all over the world presumably and since it is not clear who actually owns content here as I pointed out to @guiltyparties and he couldnt really answer who actually owns the content, that perhaps there is concerns over liability and pressures from goberments/ISP providers.

Just some clarification would be cool. Being nice does go a long way sometimes, not that I am some sort of example for that. Its just at a certain point these DVs gotta equal love on some level and maybe it is more than just random bully behavior. Maybe they care enough to respond.

I dig what you say. Here are three of my shots at understanding (1. 2, 3)

Yo, love how well articulated you are and clear with your points. This community needs content like this or rather content creators such as yourself! Hopefully, we find solutions to create a stronger community that will move past relying on mysterious large stakers to manage the downvotes for content while not providing a way to downvote for other DPoS protocols by the community as a whole.

Thanks DS 🙏🤗

Hopefully, we find solutions

here's a possibility, brand spankin' new too :)

"....to be outrageous is to be jumped upon...to say something that goes against the grain of their absolute moral certainties is something that will immediately be the cause for a major reaction..."
AND
"...yes humans are fallible but there's something to be rejoiced in being outrageous..."
AND
"....let's talk with people we fundamentally disagree with then we can work out this thing called the Human Condition together"

Great points, thanks for sharing :)

Yeah Russell is the man. Love his take on things. I liked that video more so for the first few minutes where that guest really nails it when he says, "if the location of power looks obvious, then it is probably not there."
