RE: Upvoting Satan: ethics of upvoting rapists, trolls, theives, and violence
...and there are posts like this one of the reason I follow you @aggroed, thank you, finally someone spoke up!
We were talking with fellow Steemians that we need to write a post like that, but you got us all - much better, we're all minnows anyway, a witness is more accountable!
I've been on Steemit for the last 2,5 months and I haven't flagged anyone yet, but I have been 'harassed' let's say, or pushed - to upvote, to follow...at a comment, private chat, or as a tag at a public chat room. It's just annoying and especially infuriating when those people actually end up making money!
To be honest, the reason I joined Steemit and I like it that much so far, is because I didn't have to deal with all that, like on other social media... But then again, especially me, who went hiking in Trolltunga (literally means 'Troll's Tongue in Norwegian) I should know that trolls are -apparently- everywhere... so somehow we need to protect our reputation, even if that means flagging...
I will continue this long conversation at another comment, later on, or at another post if not in private, for now, thanks again!
