The intention behind these kinds of upvotes and downvotes I posted here, has nothing to do with me personally, I am just the visible side. The intention of it is in the minds of those doing it, but it isn't clear where there are any benefits for anyone involved.
The downvotes from Steemit was because the Korean witnesses were controlling the downvotes, people who I had spoken out against strongly and who weren't happy with getting their circlejerk voting circles downvoted for the year prior. They were never part of the Steem community, they were just extractors - they are still doing it on Steem to this day.
