First, you're not banned. If you were banned you wouldn't be here. Second, no one has any right to tell you what to do with your property. That means you don't have the right to tell anyone else what to do with their property. All the rules and stuff you propose are therefore tyrannical impositions on what people can do with their property, and I disagree with them. Every rule can and will be violated by anyone put in charge of enforcing it.

Maybe Nigeria is a corruption free paradise, but the USA is not, and as far as I can tell government is primarily a vector for corruption, and working for the government is a route to that sweet, sweet graft. That's who imposes rules: government.

Hive has a government. The 20 consensus witnesses decide what code they run. We vote for witnesses. Other than that there isn't much of a route to government corruption money for Hive users, and frankly, that's already too much and I've had such discussions with many of the witnesses.

You're not banned, silenced, or bleeding out in a ditch. @hivewatchers can't do any of those things to you according to their rules. They can downvote you. They can talk mean to you if you try to beg them to stop. You can talk mean back and downvote them. If you don't have massive delegations of stake and a proposal funded through the proposal system to lend weight to your flags, you can get those things. You can buy more Hive to flag them with.

@hivewatchers flagged you for botting, but they're not in charge of your posts, and if you want to use AI to refine your writing you are completely free to do that. They can't stop you. They can flag you. They can flag you until the cows come home, and there isn't anything I can do to stop that, except ask them to stop and upvote you. About that. You're proposing all sorts of government to keep people from doing what they want with their property because you don't like it. I don't like that. I don't like government, because it's evil.

Government is the claim of higher authority over you than you have, and it's a lie. You alone can will your heavy hand to rise to your weary brow and wipe away the dripping sweat of your hard labors. Government can't do that. They don't have that authority, because it's innate to you alone. You are sovereign, and that's due to the only just law there is, the law of physics.

Now, I'm not big on flagging people. I reckon it's a poor argument for anyone capable of reason, and I prefer to reason. One of my favorite lines in any religious work is in Isaiah: Come. Let us reason together... Accordingly, I'm not going to flag you for proposing evil government deprive all of us of our rights, but instead seek to convince you you're wrong by reasoning with you instead. I reckon that will be enough for me, and if you don't agree, it's your right to be wrong.

I'm in the process of upvoting back to positive reputation one of my favorite trolls, who flags and berates me from time to time. That's why I want him on the platform, because criticism is my most valued reward on Hive. Without it I won't ever realize I'm wrong about stuff I'm wrong about and become able to change my mind and become right.

I'm ornery and opinionated, and I've been flagged plenty. Some of the flags I even disagree with. You're not the first Hive user I've explained these things to, and you won't be the last. I hope you benefit from the explanation more than most, who didn't really care about any of these things because they just wanted what they wanted.

Know this: a lot of people I admire a great deal have been flagged off the platform, and there hasn't been anything I could do about it. I don't know much about you except that you used AI to change the words you write, which I don't think should be done in human social interactions, and that you got flagged for it and have proposed a bunch of government to deprive us all of our rights because you want more money.

You're not getting on my good side, TBQH.
