Hi @transisto and @likwid we can talk together
I think you guys are downvote to @sultan-aceh because you see his art that he posts can be a lot like and that me and my team vote for him. Why we give @sultan-aceh votes on every blog he has with friendship over a longer time here.
I will continue to vote for @ sultan-aceh but I will reduce it to 49% vote. @ Sultan-aceh will continue to vote for me too but he will reduce it to 39% vote. He does not want to draw more pictures now, but will post other things on the blog as I think you think the picture number was too similar
He also has a project in progress that you may have read about that will help more people use steemit in the Aceh forest.
If you have been watching lately, I have changed my voting pattern a bit. I'm sorry to accuse you of having another agenda that I included in my post when I wrote about @sultan-aceh.
To you I have only given a 100% downvote once a long time ago due to a comment about another user where I think you were unfinished in what you wrote.
I see others taking revenge on you with giving downvote back. That's not my idea at all, I don't like the downvote being used as revenge.
When it comes to @sultan-aceh and me, we don't vote for ourselves. We also do not buy from bitbots. But I see it being voted from previous bitbots, but those are manual votes I think
We want @sultan-aceh to continue in steemit because he is a great role model in Aceh and can help many there to become Steemians. Hope you guys can help @sultan-aceh continue and give some kind words to him.
Regards @xpilar
Sorry, down-voted because there is nothing here! Took me a while to decide whether to down-vote or not. The rewards do not coincide with the content (which is beyond low energy). While I applaud your efforts to start a conversation, this could have entailed a bit more effort.
I do not down-vote (or up-vote for that matter, most times) without explaining why, even if the reason seems to be self-evident.
Had to modify this comment to make an observation... there are a number of folks mysteriously absent who tout themselves as using their down-votes and communities/initiatives to protect the rewards pool. Guess I am not the only person that participates in identity politics. Or... is their silence due to fear of reprisals?
Once again, congratulations on your recent appointment. Have a great weekend.
Would have voted the post, but there is nothing here! Sorry there are a bunch of down-votes. Maybe put a little content in here? Sort of giving some background on the discussion you are trying implement? Just saying.
Congratulations on your appointment to the Board of Directors of the Steem Foundation.
Your willingness to assist the growing of our Blockchain, without expected recompense, is OUTSTANDING!
Post Script: The down-votes? l am sure it is nothing personal.
We at Hong Kong Police Farce are dedicated to bringing peace to the city. Graveyards are peaceful right?!
(I may or may not be a parody account)
Most lart of today protest are financed by USA to overtrone legitimit goverment.Ex: Libia Siria Venezuela Chile France Iran Hong Kong... As I see there is a patern.
I would like to say that it seems there is a mass uprising rooted in liberty and freedom the world over. As an american who resists the idea that a government has the authority to take away peoples rights and sell them back as privlages, i urge the Chinese people to take back their government. While i cannot physically lend a hand in toppling the communist leadership of your country i am 100 percent with you in spirit. I want to leave a future for the next generation where the principles of sovereignty and liberty rule the day instead of regulation and corruption. If we all stand united world over this could be achieved. The enemies of liberty do not waver and so we may not rest until it is finished. God speed.
I was expecting to see at least one CCP shill make a post here like on Facebook or Twitter, but anyone here understands the value of decentralization and freedom. I’m glad to be a part of the Steem community and happy I never showed up to my job in Beijing now.
I wonder how the CCP will block Elon Musk’s Starlink. A global decentralized internet will be a powerful tool in spreading freedom and democracy around the world.
I’m looking forward to the day when the mainland Chinese wake up and stand up to the evil CCP, burn the hammer and sickle, and join the free world.
In a nutshell, my view is equal to the Christian community there: Both sides need to show restraint.
Living in China I can see the overall opinions of people here and the more violent HK gets, the happier the CCP becomes. It's just a growing list of reasons they need to come and 'rescue' the city with military intervention.
They are famous for playing the long game so don't expect some Iron Fist force hammering down in some city-wide curfew, but the end result, however it happens, will be the same. HK will calm down, Ethnic Hong Kongers will slowly be replaced by the Han, voting will be revoked as the city government slowly gets dissolved (not that it's worth shit now anyway given that nobody protested when they signed away their right to vote for anybody except pro-beijing officials).
It's sad, but violence is only expediating the process, I guess
The front liners in Hong Kong have been battling non stop for many months now. Many have given up so much for the cause and are prepared to die for it should the worse come to the worse.
For those not on ground to support them, all I ask is for the international community to help spread the word about what is happening, to your friends and family and via social media.
The world needs to know what is happening in Hong Kong, how people's liberty is being eroded day by day, how a normal person going to work can be arrested for no reason, how the police are charging into university campuses and accusing students of illegal assembly, how they are firing tear gas left right and center with disregard to public safety.
Hong Kong is not and has never asked for independence. All we ask for is the democracy and freedom due to us. We fully understand that we can't do this alone, and any international support we can get, no matter how big or small will help one step forward to achieve this.
All my heart and my support and with you people of Hong Kong. The independence of Algeria and Hong Kong and all countries led by criminal crooks. I live in Algeria we protest against this indirect colonization for 9 months and these weeks which comes, its determinant but the world does not speak.
The peoples of the world are beginning to understand that the place of crooks and in prison, and not to be leaders, and that's thanks to the alert launcher in the world, but the ongoing fight and the crooks do not let go business, he used to triumph even after the revolutions, and the history of humanity prove it today countries that are not run by families of criminals and crooks are rare, and the crooks do anything to destroy them like the democrat party in Sweden which is a scammers' party funded by rogue families to destroy the Scandinavian model, but fortunately the Swedes have not fallen into their trap. for the good of the people is necessary to follow the example of the Nordic countries. (Scandinavian) studied their history how it came to become the only countries to the people are free to good triumph over evil. it must be understood that Scandinavia is not just about the history of the Vikings, so you understand how Scandinavia and become a model to follow, it is necessary to study the history of Sweden from the time of Gustave Vasa until modern times. and you will see how the world tried to destroy Sweden, and its model to deliver corrupt or powers, but thanks or Swedish people and these good leader (it is necessary always to supervise the leaders even if it is good) it not succeeded. alore for a new Constitution can draw inspiration from the Swedish constitution is also from all the good ideas that gives power to the people as the good idea of Citizenship Initiative Referendum the (ric) that was requested by the yellow vests which represent the French people. and who has been refused by the government of scammers and French criminals who support criminals around the world and on everything else, and who do everything to prevent Africa from developing.

This TOPIC is really important and meaningful to discuss. I went through the political protests in South Korea during my high school and university period. But in this Posting, I wish I see the thumbnail and your opinion about it to avoid your low effort as you mentioned.
downvoted, for the same reason you downvoted others.
Where the heck is your thumbnail?
and I believe that this is definitely low-quality and low-effort post.
The only reason hong kong is allowed the protests is because china doesn't yet have a full administrative presence there. The protesters know they won't be able to protest if china is in full control.
They obviously wouldn't want to be in the position Muslim Uighyurs or Falun Gong members are in. The CCP has killed at least 2000 Falun Gong members and an unknown number of Muslims and Gong members for organ harvesting.
The choice seems to be clear: embrace freedom or live in an ever increasing surveillance state. Unfortunately, circumstances have made this choice much harder. What China's government is doing reminds me of the actions of states in the past and is very dangerous. This is where societies should (have to) make a stand if they want to keep their (already more and more resticted) freedoms.
It's unfortunate for Honkong investors, especially those who purchased lands with luxurious price. We know that Hongkong's income mainly comes from selling lands. They have the lowest taxes to offer.
HSBC just shut down bank accounts for Hong Kong anti-extradition bill events, as reported by the Hong Kong Economic Journal.
I.E. closing accounts for protesting demonstrations.
This is bound to happen, event in mainland China it will happen, because once people's survival and comfort is settled than the really struggle for freedom and liberty starts.
Once the survival process is taken care of, than only ideas matters to People and that is what is happening in Hong Kong and that is what will happen in China too.
As a mainland Chinese, I know exactly what they fight for. Frankly, I was also a victim of the CCP tranny who has to flee far away from home. We the real Chinese patriot and dissidents don even have any room or space to fight back for ourselves. As the Chinese who pro the Republic of China, we stand with Hong Kong people. I 've known there are lots of people in China who were locked up just because of supporting Hong kong people fight for their own rights. even though we are enslaved by CCP, it doesn't mean we are ignorant. yes, there are still a large number of Chinese people lost their mind or being brainwashed, but I have the conviction that the darkness will be enlightened, sooner or later the dawn must come! at that time we Chinese people will honor each other fight for ourselves exactly like Hong Kong people are doing right now!
I have to apologize here to all Hong Kong people, I know I should physically sand with you guys against the common enemy, but I can't. there is no room leave to us to fight like what u r doing! THEY CONTROLLED EVERYTHING, THEY WILL USE OUR FAMILY AND OUR FRIENDS TO THREATEN AND FORCE US. If anyone exposes himself to the public for supporting HongKong , his entire family will get involved and implicated. the parents may face to the dismissal, the kids may dismiss from school! They are the true evil , using the family who is the people we most love to enslave us!
Right now, it's you, hong kong people, the last chance. Don't back down, otherwise they will spread their slavery system to Hongkong. They will use everyone you loved to enslave you.....
想对香港朋友说几句：感谢你们的坚持，你们是我们的镜子，和楷模。你们这几个月的坚持一直激励着我，抱歉，我没有胆量去公开暴露我自己，更不可能和你们并肩战斗，但是并不代表我不想，我做梦都想和你们一样战斗，畅快淋漓的为着民主，自由，法治去战斗！
时代革命，光复香港！
We are at a reflection point worldwide really. All day I've been watching videos of riots in France, Iran and Hong Kong. I believe millennial are now just approaching a tipping point of voices.
Good on them, I say. I think the rest of the world could learn a lot from these dedicated protesters in Hong Kong and in the other countries where the people are rising up against corruption. Until we are all in the streets with pink masks or yellow vests nothing will change.
They are breaking with custom by using arrows. We struggle to free minds, not souls.
I’m not seeing much mainstream media coverage here in Australia. Though I have a friend on Instagram that is always posting about it on his stories. @untersatz curate 50
