That reminded me on these four posts which Dan wrote ages ago:
[What would Smart Ballots and Kamikaze voters mean to Democracy?](https://steemit.com/politics/@dantheman/what-would-smart-ballots-and-kamikaze-voters-mean-to-democracy)
[Origin of the Right to Vote and how the system denies this right](https://steemit.com/politics/@dantheman/origin-of-the-right-to-vote-and-how-the-system-denies-this-right)
[The Politics of Negative Voting](https://steemit.com/politics/@dantheman/the-politics-of-negative-voting)
[Negative Voting and Steem](https://steemit.com/steem/@dantheman/negative-voting-and-steem)

It is worth rereading them ...

I already read them all but I'll re-read them because I feel like I might gain quite a lot from it. I'm not sure I understood everything there was to understand from these posts. I remember being really interested in them but not quite sure I understood all their implication. Thank you very much for your comment @ervin-lemark. I really appreciate it.

You are welcome.

I share your feelings :)

My first impression, eight months ago, was that the ideas are very idealistic. (*what a sentence - ideas are always idealistic :)*)

The thing is that the scenario in a way really happened. Canceling out the votes and such ...

Idea are always idealistic. This is pure bliss. I won't forget that one. 

I agree that there's some quite of vote cancellation going on and it would only make sense to make it more precise and accessible to everyone. At least that's my feeling.

Thanks for the links.  I need to reread those too.  I was new when Dan first posted them, so I didn't really catch the significance.

You are welcome. Yes, they are significant. The proof being that after eight months I still remember them reading. And I know the content.
