Thanks for writing this post and trying to be a voice of reason (in a reasonable way - unlike myself, but there are many good reasons for that, which is a hell of a long story). However, being a voice of reason does not work around here - nor anywhere that has anything to do with this blockchain (like discord etc etc)....Discord is where all the rats and the filth get together to do their real dirty work in secret.

You are incredibly courageous and really do believe in all the principles of true freedom (of choice and speech), and the core principles of decentralisation (because proof of stake + code is law are not coherent with decentralisation as we can all now see, and are merely another tool being used to centralise power to the "elite" on this platform - to maintain control over everyone/thing). This is why I call it centralised- decentralisation. The way it operates is very simple, and does not need a deep explanation to understand why it is so effective.

Unfortunately however, there are some assumptions in your post that are incorrect. That is not your fault of course, because there are so many layers to this disgusting bullshit (which I have personally spent a lot of time looking into myself), that it's simply impossible to know how all of this hide and seek mind bending role playing game is being thrust upon the general user on this platform - and all at their expense. Not just in the blogging sphere either. We are talking about ALL aspects of this blockchain...it's literally a bunch of spoilt rich kids who got their stake for "free", and want a large slice of everything, for doing almost nothing - but that accusation is turned upside down from those very people at the "top", as everyone else being "entitled". It is exactly the same as any centralised pyramid structure, with some slight differences....most of them being technological

The expense I am talking about, is your time and energy. That is worth a hell of a lot more than the rewards being handed out to the "entitled" plebs. Even some of those who once claimed to be anti-abuse, have now sold their soul for the colour of blockchain crypto money. It has become a mirror image of the real world powers, and their mentality of dominance through force - something they are apparently against, but only when it is government that is dishing out the force (once again, the irony is real). Some of those I speak of, even allow low level plebs (who want to become a special part of the pyramid structure for the colour of blockchain crypto money) to play the role of oppressor/s on their behalf, to cover the tracks and dirt they want to hide....again for the colour of blockchain crypto money.

So basically, there is not just one bad apple, and that is the first and foremost fact that needs to be understood in all of this. There are many bad apples. All you need to do is find the wallets that are the both the architects, and the beneficiaries of this - it's obvious for all to see, once it becomes known to them.

Some "people" who have made a name for themselves on this platform by invoking such principles as freedom and decentralisation, or anti-abuse/anti-force, are now ripping the mask off, and showing what they were always about from day one, just so they can make a name for themselves, and climb that pyramid to have more freedom for themselves (in the form of self-interest with a monarch style tyranny). They constantly demand respect from others, but show no respect to those that they constantly demand it from. They seem to have the decentralised model in reverse - or at the very least they have change their mind once they smell the colour of crypto blockchain money. They also always invoke proof of stake onto anyone at any opportune moment and use it as a shaming tactic to get others onboard their line of thought, even when it has nothing to do with the topic on hand.

They literally want to be kings, and have their little surfs begging for some crumbs to inflate their own egos. This is not hidden, as they themselves have even made it obvious through their own words and actions in multiple ways publicly. They want to be the 'peaceful captain, but will take no shit in return from anyone who disagrees with their way of doing things'....

Does that sound like any type of decentralised attitude to you? ***

Is this really acceptable? Will no big accounts dare to stand up to such abuse?

I am specifically talking about one of the people you listed as anti-abuse in this sentence - or continuation of. This person, has allowed this abuse to both fester and continue on discord, and has no intention of either saying anything about it, or defending the victim of such abuse at any point in time - because they would expose themselves in doing so. They have even conspired with the main protagonist of your post and his "circle-jerk" thug enabler, for the abuse to be carried out, and have encouraged all the plebs to pile on top, to keep the dirt under cover.

So please respect their monarch style circle jerk ninja mined platform, and be a good little surf - otherwise, even those who claim to be "pro decentralisation and freedom", will conspire against you and shove daggers in peoples back for the colour of blockchain crypto money. It's all about power and money - nothing else. You would be amazed what so many on this platform would do, just for the promise of that aforementioned crypto money. They literally think that money is the only solution to all problems that we face. This is how you can see how big of a role that hypocrisy plays around here, as they constantly gave grand speeches about government control of the money supply (fiat money that is),while they are printing their own currency at will, and will only allow you to have a piece if you bow to their wants and needs as their little surf - inflate their ego and make them rich, and you can have a slice of the pie. The more you inflate their egos, the bigger the slice you get.
