RE: Steem Has a Severe Glitch That Likens It To Reddit, Facebook and Fox News

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

I saw a post about some guy whining about getting his blogs flagged continually, about Islamophobia. I agree, I dont want to hear about it, not going to read it, certainly would never upvote it. I dont know if hate speech was involved, but may very well make the case that free speech is still censored to some degree. I am hoping that things level out to some degree. I'm staying.

Sort:  

To be fair, no publishings should be censored. If a racist hater posts something crazy, it won't go anywhere....but he should still be able to publish. It's not fully free speech if there is any censoring. Jennsky. Big hug and peace to you though.

It's not censored in the same way it can be deleted from Facebook or Twitter. Flagged posts are given less visibility and rewards, but they are still available if you want to read them, and furthermore the record of what happened and who did it is entirely public, unlike what happens on Facebook or Twitter's servers.
