Thank you @wedacoalition, and yes, this power abuse has been going on a long time and needs to be resisted if we are to preserve censorship-free platform and grow the blockchain user base. I like your idea of building an account to counteract these downvotes with upvotes, but not sure how we could get enough hive and delegated hive power into an account that would make a difference, even a $10 counter vote would take a crapload of hive power. Others have already mentioned this, so there are plenty out there who wish to do what they can to counteract this insanity. I don't have the time to network on here to make such an idea come together, but I would certainly support and help as much as I could to anyone who does. I suspect that if we could get an account going to counter these illogical votes that seem to clearly target certain content and do so without leaving comments to explain why they left the downvote (and this is not the only whale doing this), then volunteers would begging to come forward to delegate hive power, and it would naturally grow on its own without much effort as there's enough who are sick and tired of this and ready to fight back. Certainly more downvotes against the downvoters is not the solution, just an attempt to help restore some of the diminished rewards. Even if it didn't counter the downvotes much in the way of total reward payouts, I suspect it would do much in raising awareness of such downvote behavior.

We need to network with @ultravioletmag who has proposed this same concept, and see what we can do to make it a reality. @offgridlife, @crystalhuman, @johnvibes, @informationwar, @truthforce, @thoughts-in-time, @logiczombie, @freezepeach, @r0nd0n all may potentially also be interested in helping out with such a project, as well as the plethora of users who have been targeted, including @kennyskitchen, @dbroze, @edicted, @naturalmedicine, and so many others.

If the freeze peach service became active on Hive, I'd throw some delegation that way, to the best of my knowledge it went out of service at the time of the Steem fork.

I will go down with my battleship for this issue because it has bothered me that long and I don't think Hive will be able to remain uncensored if powerful accounts decide to downvote content for no logical reason.

I totally agree, maybe we can get enough of us together to make an account to counter some of these downvotes. If it is their 'right' to downvote, it is certainly our right to counter downvotes, right?

Thanks again for the thoughtful comment and on another note, thank you for all the good work you do exposing Yemen genocide, maybe soon our work will pay off in the form of no more US bombs being dropped on innocent children and wedding gatherings in our names by the royal Saudi war criminals day after day after day after day.
