I think there is no mistake as to having the downvote button. In the real world, memories fade away. You may not have realised but memories fading away is similar to the mechanism of downvoting. The blockchain is a permanent ledger and you cant allow things to be floating around if they are of no value or less value. Im not saying some people cant abuse the downvote system. But its relevant. Just like a gun, its for protection and attacks. You just have to see it from a different angle

Not really....it is being used to punish those who do not fall in line from a more political aspect as compared to a free speech aspect.....@baah is doing a great job proving why more authors do not use Steemit and why a block feature against cyber bullies and stalkers is needed in Steemit.......in reality, Steemit has very limited quality content and these people are ruining the web site with this abuse and stalking....all social media has a block feature to push these people away....in Steemit they hide behind screen names and make personal treats and more.....if the founders do not add more tools to block them, there is no way this site is not going just fail and end up into a mess.
