Alright, so let me get this straight.

Hive account@fulltimegeek has been downvoting:

ǝɹǝɥ sɐʍ ɹoʇɐɹnƆ pɐW ǝɥ┴

spam, therefore, the account is no longer viable and Hive account@berniesanders and Hive account@themarkymark remove their delegations and blame that on FTG?

Get ready for another propaganda campaign

Hive account@themadcurator account has just been sacrificed to leverage a smear campaign against Hive account@fulltimegeek. Don't forget your !popcorn.

HULK SMASH

In other news, Hive account@theycallmedan creates an account to heal flagged accounts, and has begun to undo a lot of the flagging done on both sides. Or at least that what the account's stated purpose is. Haven't fact checked that fully.

The smear campaign begins. Get ready for more garbage on the blockchain.

Set phasers from 'stun' to 'kill'!

This all comes in the wake (yesterday) of me telling Hive account@fulltimegeek to throw my posting key in the muck with the other Hive account@fulltimebot accounts. When my voting power gets to 100% FTG is my vote proxy. It's been like this for a while, but now my account is set to flag. What insane timing that is.

Spam is in the eye of the beholder.

I had a conversation with Hive account@canadian-coconut about these developments.
She convinced me that

ǝɹǝɥ sɐʍ ɹoʇɐɹnƆ pɐW ǝɥ┴

comments are not spam.
People like them.
They shouldn't be flagged.

Unfortunately, it seems to be too late for that, as the delegations have been removed to leverage the propaganda campaign that states Hive account@fulltimegeek is the devil.

You know, there is a reason why I gave Hive account@fulltimegeek my posting key.
It's not hard to tell who is good for Steem and who isn't.
Let's take this moment to spot the difference:

Bad:

• Terrorists
• Exploiters
• Entitlement (Greedy/Selfish/Narcissist/Gaslighting)
• Centralization

Good:

• Synergy
• Support
• Altruism
• Decentralization

Oh, you engage in terrorism and propaganda on the blockchain? Oh, you are running a bid-bot to exploit Steemit's shitty trending tab? Oh, you think you deserve more money than everyone else and need everyone to think you're awesome no matter how shitty you are? Oh, you took someone's refund and burnt it in front of their face?

Hm, yeah, it's not hard to see who is good for this space and who is a parasite.

The easiest thing for me to do is look at my supporters. These people are giving away money... to me! So then I look at them and see that they are giving away money to a lot of other people as well. Therefore, I know for a fact that a few people here are actively trying to decentralize the platform.

Once I go beyond this scope it becomes a little more difficult. How do you know someone is decentralizing the platform when they could just be upvoting their own botnet? This is why I need to work on my reputation system more.

Hive account@fulltimegeek was one of the first big accounts to support me, and I appreciate that. I am on a constant lookout for programmers who fit the mold of what I consider healthy behavior in the realm of open-source community. It's hard to find people like this, because society brainwashes us to be the exact opposite way.

When it really comes down to it, trifling politics don't matter. How many times am I going to see this Flat-Earth undermine thrown in the face of everyone on the platform?

I consider myself extremely left-wing, and extremely atheist. That hasn't stopped me from getting along with Libertarians, Religion, Men's-Rights-Activists, cults, outlandish conspiracy theory, etc.

We have more important things to worry about than petty squabbles.

Don't let Hive account@berniesanders put you on tilt.

That troll monster feeds off that shit.

I think in the spirit of Hive account@curatorhulk account being created we should be trying to keep flags down to a minimum (and heal them where applicable).

When the two biggest accounts on Hive account@drugwars (a game designed to troll people) kill an account that was doing good work just to smear someone through the mud, you know shit is about to hit the fan.

It's time to grab an umbrella.
