You've just gotta understand that it's only the blockchain that is decentralised and censorship-resistant.
The front-ends that display the blockchain's content are entirely centralised and their owners can display content how they see fit.
Also, downvoting to remove rewards is NOT censorship.
It sucks to lose money, but the decentralised Hive blockchain means no matter how many downvotes you get, nobody can take away your ability to say what you want to say on your own account.
Sure, front-ends can choose to not display content that has been downvoted or accounts with low rep.
But that's fine, because you can also simply choose to use a different front-end that uses whatever mechanism that is more your liking to display content.
I have always wondered why there isn't a pirate front-end that simply displays everything that is downvoted to zero.
And 'censors' all of the stuff with positive rewards haha.
