RE: Our Corrupt Sense of Fairness

But those ideas are forever in the blockchain and are immutable. Yes the majority decide what type of content is most visible, but steemit allows all users to have a voice whether or not it is a popular one. I would see it as censorship if @dantheman could simply click and delete content that may be questioning steemit, but I have seen quite the opposite. Some very controversial topics have seen the light of day and for the most part were discussed in a way that allowed both sides to fully share their opinions.

There is not censorship, but being able to make content very difficult to see will be important when someone inevitably decides to post child pornography, live torture or other things that an immutable decentralized blockchain would need to be able to handle due to some legal implications.
