The world is what it always has been. It is no different here on steemit. The only difference is that if you happen to disagree with a post, or an opinion you do risk being flagged.
After all there is a hierarchy: Minnows, Dolphins, Whales!
This creates an uneasy silence inside of me. I work hard for my reputation. All it takes is one with a lot of SP to take you down.
- So I stay silent.
It's sad but unsurprising.
Yes, that's me; the bunny who doesn't have the stature or the teeth to stand up for my personal beliefs. Such is life, such is nature. I once posted my gripes about communism; and I was told to immediately take down the post because the tag didn't fit a steemian's definition of communism. I didn't take the tag down, but their 12,000 SP could have flagged me and ruined my reputation.
Steemit is not about freedom of choice, freedom of speech. It is actually pure hardcore natural selection.
It is a jungle, where the teeth is actually Steem Power. Steem Power is crypto; and thus MONEY.
Is that really anarchy? Is that Communism? Or is it Crony Capitalism?
Yes, I am a capitalist; and I dont agree with crony-capitalism. It would seem there is no escape. There is no such thing as a "censorship free" space left. In the end, those with the gold, control the rules. I still love steemit, but I am saddened I cannot fight back with freedom of speech.

This is steemit! Love it or hate it, navigate with care! It's a jungle out there (and in here)
