I reported this account earlier, it's really frustrating there is really nothing that can be done. No one wants to sacrifice their stake, and no one should have to sacrifice their rewards to police Steemit. Steemcleaners doesn't have the resources or tools to scale with the abuse.
There are a lot of these type of things going on, every time I find another I get more jaded about the whole thing.
I think we have to do more than report it. We have to flag it.
If we really care about STEEM, then our actions (not our reports or our words) will reflect that. We'll sacrifice some curation rewards and some rewards we would have liked to see authors we support receive because we care about the long-term value potential here.
It's not someone else's job.
It's our job.

I think that one of the problems is that minnows are afraid that downvoting this crap will make them a target, so they prefer to have somebody to report it to instead. Somebody with the firepower to stand up and hold their ground.
I have more resources than the average newcomer, but I still hesitate to declare war on any account with more firepower than me. On the other hand, I don't hesitate to provide coaching and the occasional flag when it's a smaller account.

Totally agree on this one. I have down voted some post in YouTube before if I don't like it due to I think their content is bad (I am no expert but that is my opinion). However, as this barely affect the author or myself as I can not be a target, I can practically do what I want (feels right).
Here even if I find a post disturbing, wrong, or rude I am scared of flagging it as he or his followers will down vote what little rewards I can get in this platform.
I and I think most minnows already have a hard time creating content and trying to be active, getting entangled in a Steem war would probably too much...
