It seems to get confusing for so many as they seem to be unable to stop conflating Steem from Steemit from those with mega stake. I tried explaining it just yesterday to someone I hold in high regard and have not the energy yet to respond to their counter yet, as it appears I would largely be repeating myself. This person (among many I encounter) believe there are criminal actions taking place, and in this case believe that all high stake holders will be criminally liable for not stopping the actions of a large whale here known for smacking down accounts.

It seems lost on so many that each stakeholder is their own entity, capable by the structure itself of interacting on this privately owned front end as they see fit. At times this grows more exasperating when the person misunderstanding the idea of the private corporation from the chain itself is one who normally advocates for decentralization, yet it appears lost on them their calls for action is begging for the very centralization they normally oppose.

As for Sunlit, she is a troll who pretends she is some kind of expert researcher/blogger. She talks shit just about everywhere she goes, making the wildest accusations with no proof. She did it to me again recently on a post update I did, and peeking at her account saw she is still going strong with her asinine insults and assertions elsewhere. Just last year she was accusing me of being a sock puppet account of CanadianCoconut. She claims to be a respected blogger, yet the majority of her work here has been copying and pasting some other womans blog. I feel bad for the woman whose blog she does this too as some might assume this woman (the real blogger) endorses the vile ignorance she spews forth daily on the chain.

Most chains one profits by pump and dump or hodl. Here, you get profits by those methods PLUS stake growth to offset inflation AND rewards. But then, to take advantage of those perks to their full extent, one would either need to invest out of pocket or author pieces that are appreciated by others who invested. No one here is owed shit, if they don't like it I agree. No one is forcing anyone to log on, and there are other chains to hodl, or hell, create their own.
