I think bah completely misunderstands the terminology in the meaning of Curation. curation is about organising posts into categories and displaying and curating ones that you like. Curating is not silencing everyones opinion you don’t like, auto down voting somebody before they’ve even posted, down voting somebody because you either don’t like them personally, they defended somebody who got down voted, they took their own money out of a site, they post on another site. This is not curation I don’t know where you’re getting your definition of curation from. If you curate art for an art gallery you simply organise and display the art that you like and don’t display the art that you don’t like. You don’t make it so that artist can never ever earn money again from their art because you don’t like it or tell them they’ll never ever be able to display art in your gallery at any point in the future.

If I Was Still On Hive
well stated
Nobody can silence anyone on hive, like on here, stop making up shit and pretending it applies when its a bullshit fabrication.
please be slightly more specific
She says that curation silences people. Its a blatant falsehood, nobody can silence anyone, like on here,nobody can silence anyone, if someone is silenced its because they chose to be silent.
you're acting like downvoting is somehow NOT a disincentive to "speaking your mind"
is downvoting a "punishment" or not a "punishment" ?
It depends on the one getting downvoted.
when is downvoting considered a "reward" ?
When it feel like that.

Thanks ppl are trying tobuse some crazy excuses for this behaviour. Curating my ass lol. If you ban an artists from applying to display in your gallery your banning them or black listing them your not curating them 🤣
Nobody can ban you. Stop being obtuse. You literally suggested that people go to hive and make multiple accounts and earn from everything under the sun except talking about hive cabal.
you are basically banned from the trending page if the oligarchs aren't getting their cut
You're banned or blacklisted? You can still comment all over trending.
good luck getting anyone to take you seriously
Why?
do you think people generally pay more attention to posts and comments by high-rep users with big upvotes ?
Except you're not silenced.
posts hidden and negative rep does seem to have some impact on your credibility
isn't that the whole point of downvoting in the first place ?
It depends on the content, doesn't it?
beauty is in the eye of the beholder
The point of downvoting is the same as the point of upvoting, to curate the content as everyone deems best, what's at the front and what's last. As upvoting can and is abused, so too downvoting is susceptible to be misused.
if you give a group of 100 kids a handful of coins they can share to encourage artwork and writing and performances they like, they will choose different things, and some kids will receive bigger tips than others and that's all fine
there is no need to give the kids baseball bats to knock tip jars into the gutter
That's hardly what the fuck is happening, in your twisted reality, Downvoting is synonymous with violence? Fuck off. You are whack if you think there shouldn't be a mechanism for the prisoners dilemma of tipping only yourself, which is fine, but don't pretend that you have any credibility to make comparisons or to draw parallels as you've been reduced to saying that downvoting is Fascist Violence.
knocking tip jars into the gutter is exactly what downvoting does
