This is the main disagreement between us. It comes from a misunderstandig about what an airdrop is. You believe that everyone is entitled to receive free money. But that is not how airdrops work. For example, when Byteball did an airdrop for steem users all the accounts had to perform certain actions and the amount received depended on their reputation but nobody complained that they were being punished.

Hive is a new chain and the conditions to receive an airdrop was to not vote for two or more of Justin Sun's witnesses (directly or via proxy) if you had >1k SP. The coins were a gift and nobody has the right to receive a gift. That is what a gift is.

The argument that people were punished is absurd because nothing was taken away from them...they just did not receive a gift. Maybe there feelings were hurt and that is too bad. I am willing to vote for individual proposals that can convince me that they made a mistake and it wasn't their intention to help Tron takeover Steem.

The hypotetichal Hillary Clinton analogy that you are using is a very bad one because not everyone is entitled to receive the relief package...so even that has conditions.
