Kinda getting tired of being targeted for apparently doing things wrong by individuals who have all the power and the ability to effectively make decisions for the masses against them. If delegation is such a bad thing then why does it even exist on Hive? Or is it only OK when you and you buddies do it? I'm starting to feel that Hive as a platform is effectively a dictatorship in decentralized clothing.

In terms of my own personal content, the quality speaks for itself. However, getting your voice heard on a well established platform is very difficult. Programs like the one run by @hive.curation offer a great support for minnows like me who are trying to establish themselves but also feel that it is right to be able to get some reward for the content we produce, particularly given the effort put in.

In my mind this platform does two things:

• 1.) It helps to support other authors while they build themselves up with a stable support group
• 2.) It offers a way of bringing attention to our posts outside of their original communities. Helping to bridge the gap.

Telling everyone they are doing it wrong all the time and slapping downvotes (or threatening to) on them is effectively a bully tactic and is not constructive. You know bullying right? It is where someone with more power picks on individuals with less for what they perceive as their faults. You see, the reason we need to form groups like this is because of groups like yours, whales, coming along casting waves on everyone and happily reaping the benefits at the cost of the weaker players. As with all platforms I'm sad to say hive feels to me like it is not a place for a decentralized ecosystem it is instead it is the rich scratching each others backs then telling everyone else to stop doing it (twofaced and back to the status quo).

I hope you take from this message just how frustrated I am at your behavior and lack of concern for how you hurt decentralization and social platforms in general. I work bloody hard all week then on the weekend spend a few hours writing a well throughout and constructive post (once a week), not asking for much tbh, just support (with a willingness to support others) and not to told what we can and cannot do.
