Imagine if the 'collective of free speechers' contributed directly to the victims of ideological flagging?
Send some steem directly to the victims...as an organized 'collective'
(I love using that word when it applies to 'us')
Only those lacking the skills to partake in intelligent debate decide to flag, and that's only due to the weak ideologies that can't be defended (imo).
And we all know which side of the spectrum they seem to inhabit.
My posts for example, range around the 40/50 cents, to a dollar and a bit more... (roughly, I haven't worked it out).
Imagine if the victim of an attack, had an average earnings of, say, 50 cents per post....
That's a collective of 50 people donating 1 cent a day directly, per post. 4 posts per day is only 4 cents each.
This will tide them through the tough times, and more importantly - show solidarity against the tyrants, and give much needed support when you are suffering the attacks.
It's not pleasant to be bullied from people that you can't fight back against...
I'd almost guarantee , that there are enough people willing to contribute in this way, thus making 'the truth collective' stronger - and very possibly, over time- completely nullify the power of big SP holders, and ideological bullies...
So much so that the 'stupid flags' could stop altogether.
There would be no point in doing it...
This might encourage the flagging mechanism to be used as intended...
Your thoughts, my fellow truth speakers?
The more I think about it, the more sense it makes.
Because it would all be manual process, on an individual basis - it doesn't need to scale up or anything.
It's an 'as is' procedure...
And very simple to apply. Very.
resteem this people, this just might be a solution to a very big problem we have here...
edit: - I'll do the 'leg work' if need be, to coordinate redistributions etc..
