I don't view hive as a traditional anything.
Other than your misunderstanding of how I see Hive, you and I are in full alignment here.
individuals have responsibilities.
Don't ever support anyone who wants you to censor this chain, or makes moves that could restrict user freedom.
I (personally) will always help you with anything that helps you protect freedom of speech on this chain. It's a values thing, you know?
I think we've common ground there.
All the above sounds good, and I'm glad to hear it. But one thing that mildly confused me, however, was that the comment you're replying to was addressing @thecryptodrive, not you. In particular where he was suggesting "get your house in order" which implies a different view than mine on how I interact with other Hive users and what Hive is to me.
TCD, just like me, is aware that the chain SHOULD NOT be governed.
It loses its purpose that way.
This said, with regard to privately run anythings, were this situation, or the cryptofinally situation to have played out on Blurt, I'd have tried to "get my house in order".
But you do you man.
(I think) I understand where you're coming from.
