You pretty much lost me with the KKK comparatives. Why not throw in some Nazi ones too?

I feel as though the constraints of this system (read in community governance, and public commons) don't fit into your strict world view. IF this place wasn't voluntary and these constraints were being imposed upon me involuntarily, I might feel similarly. But participation is voluntary, and you are subject to community governance. Losing community governance via STEEM is why we have a HIVE at all. You landed on the blockchain where the people who care about that came!
