A strong democracy should be able to stand information which even the majority is considering as false.
Why can´t the Steem chain be that place where also obvious nonsense is allowed to be dumped?
I would cut the line if e.g. child porn is dispayed. Maybe not consistent, but in this case I would favor deletion.

Btw. the Steemit blocking of that account is pathetic. If you just replace the "it" with "peak", you come to the steempeak frontend where the censorship obviously didn´t happen
