An attack on one hivizen is an attack on all hivizens.
As a hive, we have to resolve these conflicts or risk the hive being exposed as unsupportive of free speech.
Granted the content in question is questionable in nature, often tldr, at times irritating (to some), and the author not the most invested due to real life pressures, but to drive off a long term hivizen is also questionable.
We all get to do what we want within the ratings system. (-100 to 100)
We all get to say what we want, and get rated for it.
But, were this behavior (cancelling accounts smaller than you) to find support in the hive what is the proper response?
Clearly the conflict is outside the ability of the participants to resolve.
The power dynamics are set.
The positions of the two participants are set.
This dynamic is playing out here, too.
However, the participants in that conflict are more equally power balanced.
Stop the presses, here is a another.
I don't know what to do, I just wish we could resolve all this amicably.

These are public rooms managed by private people for the benefit of everybody using this blockchain.
What they do is voluntary, but openly public.
Don't abuse their willingness to work for the collective for what little we give them, eh?
Without them, none of this exists.
When you go through these rooms catching up on 'the community', be sure to look for the detective, and add your detective, too!
