@JustinSunSteemit, this is for you...
It is a perversion of human nature that bullies, such as yourself, tend to play the role of victim.
After your hostile takeover and deception, this is how you make peace, Justin, with fighting words: issuing ultimatums, veiled threats & f-bombs?
Show more humility, man, and don’t insult our intelligence. It’s wiser to respect the values and founding principles of the rich, diverse community that you’ve ‘partnered’ with.
Despite what Ned might have led you to believe, we are not here to be bought and sold, or lied to or bullied.
Controlling independent-minded others is a (spiritual) impossibility; those who try, are doomed to live in a state of agitated insecurity. This should be a lesson to all bullies, big and small.
Look at dictators on the world stage—- how they are all, eventually, toppled. Historically, it does not end well, my friend, what begins with a violation of trust and abuse of power.
The greater the number of souls you try to control, the greater your frustration and insecurity.
We, Steemians, are willing to walk through fire to protect the community we created through hard work and love.
In the interest of everyone involved, I beseech you to reconsider your options as well as your approach...
