Steem/Hive has been sold as a censorship free or censorship resistant platform.

Censorship has somehow been redefined by the people here to only mean "deleted" which is simply untrue.

If you look up the definition of Censorship you will see it means "suppression" and not "deletion". That is THE defintion in the dictionary. Somehow people here made everyone think this place is censorship free, downvotes are built into the protocol and that suppresses a post or comment when downvoted. Censorship is built into the protocol.

If you take a few steps back and look at Steem/Hive as the system it is, it has censorship built in. Now is all censorship good or bad or inbetween? Certainly some can be good, for an example of someone just posting graphic nudity under the tag of #news or #politics that obviously has no place there, or someone making posts that are garbage and says "asldkfjaw0r9aw0er9a w0r9 ajw0r9 aj09f jasd0fja w0e9rj a0werja 0wer9j " that would be worthy of a downvote as it is SPAM, etc.

Suppressing someone's post because they have the most minor of wrong things in it is not a correct action to take, ESPECIALLY zeroing out the post.

I see in your bio it says you are an anarchist so I would think you would be more aligned with what I am saying, no?
