Well, that is certainly one way to look at it.

Now i know how i got into this mess, at least.
I follow @enforcer48 because he has been a long term spam fighter.
I trust his judgement, but i also review my flags, daily.

I speak up when i see things i don't like.

As for the one i won't name, he is a mixed grab bag of electric eels.
Without him, steem didn't launch.
Like it or not, his attention to steem has been ubiquitous from the start.
I trust that he thinks he is doing right, and acknowledge that i don't have the inside scoop to claim otherwise.
My guess is that he has been a net asset.

Without @themarkymark's flagging efforts i see even more people reaping the pool for maximum btc value.
Without him, and others, stopping some of the hemorrhaging of value from steem this would have collapsed by now.

Like it, or not, without those two steem is very different.
The dumping would have likely ended any hope.

Steem is a collective, nobody owns the chain.
We do better when we work together as a team, but good luck selling a crapitalust that game.
Dog eat dog, every man for himself competition has led us here.

3 You were extremely bad mannered.

I responded in kind, you don't have to like it.
I didn't much like it, either.

Do you seriously believe that the recent price increase is due to new investment,...

No, less dumping.
When folks stop selling for pennies the price must rise.
If nobody would sell below 5usd, we would be there now.
Spammers dump, rent seekers dump, flagging them is self defense.
They take bread from my mouth.

The rest is of your comment was unintelligible.

Excellent, you can't expect the blind to know what blue is.
Nor can you expect a man to recognize his wrongs when being right would take away his paycheck.

the continually recycled boring memes for the last three or more years.

Dang, i shouldn't have been making new ones each week?
I could've just recycled the old ones?
Smdh.

As to my newslinks, you see anybody else breaching these subjects?

Dr Sheldon Wolin on Totalitarian America,

I made it to 22 minutes.
You will excuse me if i have heard it all before.
I pierced the many veils many years ago.
If you like, i can link you to some of it.

Ps, tmm doesn't like me, that much.
I would never have been guilty of schmoozing with him.
The other one votes me from time to time, and has never burned my account to the ground, so i must not be all bad.
I've seen him burn one to -8, and when that account remediated his responses and content, he got up off of him.
So, not all bad, either.
