Sorry to hear it but I have to find this all very annoying you are claiming you understand how our community works. Very audacious of you to make that claim. You clearly have no idea how the Hive community works let alone the technology of how it works and how it's designed for such events.
Bernie has been around here for 4 years! Do you honestly think you were going to "win"? Bernie has been through many hardcore battles here on this chain good or bad that is just the way it is. Anyone who knows the community knows this. You clearly aren't connected to the community.
I saw the whole thing take place from the start. You were told your posts footers were spammy. You were told to engage more with the actual community with comments, not on your crypto show. You got mad because of this and didn't understand why whales didn't come to your defense once someone told you no more reward for you?
You could be right. Adoption could be stunted ( it won't ) by one whale but nobody will care or even know of Bernie when there are 1,0000 whales. So who cares? You didn't follow anyone's advice after-the-fact. You aren't going to be part of the most powerful social media ( and many other things shortly ) blockchain in the world. You really aren't going to be able to make in-roads in the crypto world as a "crypto influencer". You kept digging yourself a hole as I'm pretty sure some people had sympathy at first like myself but soon realized this was a case of being butthurt.
