Like I said, I agree with the problem. But promoting sensitive content, for whichever sake, can have serious image consequences, especially considering serious investors. And we know already that Steem has an image problem. Involving it so blatantly in a political "war" doesn't make it better, it makes it worse. If Steem wants to communicate that, they should make a post about it here and on medium and maybe a video on youtube to call people from whichever political side to publish their content here. Promoting one sided content certainly does not have the same effect.

I hear what you're saying. I don't think it's an unreasonable argument, but right now, if there was a headline on some major news publication that read "Steemit has chosen a side!" It would still be good for us because the problem we're dealing with more seriously than bad press is no press. I think in the short term, regardless of political affiliation, if someone comes here who has a large following and is dealing with being either silenced, demonetized, or both, we should send a clear message of "We're here for YOU"

On the shortterm, considering Steem mostly as a content platform yes. It would probably be beneficial. On the mid and long term, many app developers could prefer to create their apps on Tron or elsewhere to avoid taking side in this. I don't care much about the short term Steem price, I'm in this for the long term.
