"This is a great platform for debate and discussion about all thoughts and opinions." If the platform goes mainstream what happens when two groups with opposing political viewpoints want to exist on the network? Its going to be a constant flag-war to eternity. Or worse the debate will never even begin due to self censorship.

Luckily for the discussion's sake and integrity it benefits nobody to flag or downvote unless everybody else does.
They can discuss their views and maybe minds can be changed for the better! I would not like it if this became a place of self censorship as it was made to do the exact opposite. If free speech exists here, people can have constructive conversations, decide how they feel about the given issue and vote based on how they feel.... At that point I think Steemit has created democracy and better democracy than the countries we live in. I value your concern and have spent countless hours debating the same stuff in my head and with other people.
Ultimately this will become the most liberating and disruptive platforms to date. If it continues on this path. Right now it is still an infant and our content is baby food!
