Problem is that if you ignore this it destroys the platform. Any other place you could ignore it, but here we have to work actively against corruption. Only the community can deal with things here. There's no overlord Zuckerberg who can do it for us.

Actually it is odd behaviour - trolling the platform as such probably and with a lot of investment to back it. I asked in what was called Steemflag..whatever Discord which is now called Hive-DR? They probably know what it is and tons of gossip and things I can't go around being bothered with in my daily routines.

Everyone knows trolling is what folks with low self esteem do, so why would one want to put their vulnerabilities out on display, for all to see? "I'm having a meltdown!"

If I laugh at this, does that make me a bully? What is the politically correct response to all this?

As far as I can see it is just a vote selling scheme with this transisto bloke behind it. They should be closed down. I will see what the glorious downvoting party is saying about it...

In the meantime I'll be giving this plenty of thought. Where I stand right now, it's clear what I produce isn't welcome here, one needs to be a Hive cheerleader or else. My fucking investment is worthless to this crowd. Clearly I'm angry and that has nothing to do with the downvotes. It's the principle. Feeling like I've been duped by another goddamn crypto project. I recognize the fact plenty of people here mean well, probably the majority, but I have serious concerns about the future of this platform and most certainly will not be setting myself up for failure, especially after what happened on Steem over the course of many years with some of these same people at the helm. They want to develop for a community that in many ways seems like it's being taken for granted. Nobody will be able to talk any sense into this transisto guy. I've dealt with him before. He was doing the same thing months ago. Nothing changed. So I'd be a fool now to assume things will get better.

True all of it. He seems to be some destructive weirdo. I actually like a lot of the creative people here, and that is my main reason to be here, not the Hive/Steem/whatever. It's an interesting crowd if you like me only work from underground sites. But I know the feeling.
