I don't think that you understand the totality of the problem and I think you are making assumptions about what this group is. This is about spammers and plagiarizers. Have a look at the people I have listed as chronic offenders. This problem has done nothing but get worse because the majority of users don't want to flag. Your vote determines the subjective quality of Steemit. As another note, the more Steem and SBD you remove from circulation the higher the value it has. You do whatever you want. I'm saying this is about getting rid of spammers, not going after people I don't agree with.
