What about the freedom of speech, dear @dcooperation?
Now after @cwow2 [asked](https://steemit.com/hive-177976/@cwow2/re-dcooperation-202031t62340577z#@cwow2/re-dcooperation-202031t62340577z) @dcooperation about the reason of ignoring/muting (blocking) me out of the @dcooperation community, they answered with the following:

> He was spreading negativity about steem under my comments and the comments of our members. We don't need that, our goal is to motivate steemians and to promote steem, but not to spread the same thing again and again in the chain. If they have an issue with the activity on the chain, let him do something else about it, but not to always complain about that. Check his comments and you will see.

I only stated facts. Multiple times. Even if they are negative, but still facts. Based on statistics and on personal experience. At least I do not do false/fake positivity, as many other Steemians do. I wrote the truth and honest comments. The false/fake positivity do more bad than good in my opinion. People should be able to see and express the truth. People should also admit the truth, and they should not write things that are not true. Writing "A", while the truth is "B" is not good. I still believe that I did not do anything wrong, and I believe that this (stating facts based on statistics and on personal experience, and expressing our opinion) is a part of the freedom of speech. Probably most of the people are agree with me. Even if they are afraid to openly express it after reading what happened. Because what you have done is pure censorship.

Pure censorship. Muting those, who write the truth.

The funny/ironic thing is the fact this is the first time I personally experience any kind of censorship. This fact will probably also not help the Steem blockchain. Or at least in the terms of getting new, active users. Think about what the outsider people will think about this blockchain, when they read this post.

Following, nor unfollowing others have nothing to do with censorship. That is a completely different story. By the way, there are a lot of inactive followers. Nowadays I have 1043 followers, but most of them are inactive nowadays. They left Steemit and the Steem blockchain months/years ago. Many people left Steemit and the Steem blockchain over the years. Many (hundreds of thousands of) people are left and are still leaving. This is also a part of the truth. But many people do not like to see the truth.

I think mostly who left and inactive join steemit in 2018 when bitcoin and Altcoins goes price ATH butt they left after price crashed, problem is that mostly we don't have any other source of contact of that users otherwise they reactivate there account if someone remembered them about steem and steemit again

Muting and ignoring is also not a form of censorship anyone have right to do that that's why this feature is introduced on platform 

I see some top users with large sp also ignored and even blacklist listed by some other steemit accounts, they don't lose enthusiasm into steem blockchain due to this they are still active and motivated users of steemit
