People are free to use their stake as they please, that's what Steem power is, you have a set amount of influence to decide how the reward pool can be used.

I don't agree with flagging over "vegan wars" (Not even sure what that is, I assume it is anti-vegan or the opposite).

I can assure you I don't downvote for petty things like that, but I have no influence on other people's stake.
