Flagging is a violence and I would not accept any arguments that it could be "healthy" for the community.

Would you accept that war is good for humanity? No? Same thing. You could argue, that war brought progress and modern goods, but it is just clever argument. Direct perception of violence don't produce clever arguments.

Flagging is not violence.  Flagging is downvoting. 
It is the tool provided by the platform for the community to police itself.  

If someone posts inappropriate content, stolen content, spam, scam, abuse, or exploits the system then flagging is the solution.  

Steem Inc does not police the platform, it is up to the community to police itself.  

It is no violence, it is not an attack, it is simply a downvote.   When someone upvotes you they feel your post should be worth more, if they downvote they believe it should be less. The community decides what they feel is fair. 

Emotional flagging is a different story, flagging because you don’t like someone’s opinion or just want to fuck with someone is a different story and to some extent I can see that as violence.  

If you believe all flagging is bad then you don’t understand the platform properly.

You have to remember we all share the same reward pool and if one person abuses it, that means others who don’t are short changed.

I have not flagged of yet as I don't yet now much about the process. I have wanted to down vote a post because I don't ether agree with the content or that the content is harmful. all the post about speculation on a given currency I think needs to be down voted as it is a carry over from the old system of something for nothing. More preciously others expense. I will look more into the flanging as a protest against inappropriate content.

Stinc has arranged the code per the desire of the 39 accounts that matter.  They hold all the power, because they hold almost all the Steem.  Only other whales can counter their power, and most whales would rather make profits than waves.

Whale flags are different than even the flags of half the minnows on the platform together, since they do not equal one whale flag.  

This is comparable to the effective power of the US nuclear arsenal against villagers in Syria.  There is no contest, no accountability for whales.

We can police ourselves.  We cannot police the whales, and the whales aren't interested in wasting their money on it.    Because of the gross inequity of distribution of Steem, flagging is broken.

It is broken on purpose.  Absolute power corrupts absolutely, and the 39 whales of Steemit have practically absolute power.

They own the rewards pool, and @haejin has realized that.

Whales MADE Steemit.
They invested in it.
they own it.
it belongs to them.
they are allowing you to play in their sand box.
and yet.
you complain.
