@hbhades, I don't know who invented this strange 'downvotes rule', but yes I've heard about it. It's like saying if you don't agree please abstain from saying "No", just be quiet. In the good old times, there were 'flags' for spammers and trolls and nobody had to explain the rules.

Why Ethereum's market cap will not drop below 1 Billion ever again.
In all honesty with Steemit being a smaller community at this time, your downvote is much more powerful and with that it should be used with caution. It removes the incentives of users bringing original content to the site (even if that content is opinionated). I intended only on starting a conversation with a bold statement.
Why would a user want to post content that is opinionated and may get a mix of up and downvotes and thus be worth nothing and get buried? While another user spams upvote worthy reposts and makes a profit?

I understand there is a problem. But the solution could not be to change the audience of your post but the rules how profits are calculated. A controversal piece is of high value in the spectator economy. if Steemit doesn't accept this, it's by all means their fault, but don't blame me that I will continue to vote with my mouse.
