Should I be worried ? this post card has been waiting to be read on the grandmother’s ...

Dude, you're attitude of "this does not meet my standard" is subjective. None of the other voters were bots. Just regular folks who happened to appreciate her post. I may not agree, and you obviously didn't, but that's not the point. People will share what they want to share, and if they feel they need to walk on egg shells then they won't stay. I mean, why stay? Part of the argument for #Steem is that its the most censorship resistant social platform out there...but that's not true when you have people like you "censoring" posts because, you didn't "like them".

At least with Facebook, Youtube, and Instagram you only have one entity that can censor you. In Steemit, you have hundreds like yourself. Your subjective attitude makes this 100 times more censored than any platform on this plant.

And these regular folks who happened to "appreciate" her post, isn't "subjective" ? It goes both ways.

People will share what they want to share, and if they feel they need to walk on egg shells then they won't stay.

When the hell did I say that she shouldn't have shared that ? I said (with my vote) this shouldn't be rewarded as much (or at all if you ask me but that's another subject), not "this shouldn't be shared". Big difference here.

Aaand when did I ever censor her ? One downvote doesn't censor shit, the post is still there, people can still read it. And even if I had the steem power to bring it to 0 in the "hidden" state of steemit, it would still be visible on any front end, this is not censorship. Steem is censorship resistant because content can't be deleted, not because people can downvote.

You're making no sense, I can't delete posts, as far as I know the post is still up for anyone to see. If I was facebook/youtube/whatever and wanted to censor you, you wouldn't be able to see it anymore. That's censorship. A downvote is not.

I suggest that you read up on steem and what is censorship before engaging in more debates. I am down to debate you but you're just making up nonsense which isn't productive.
