True, but does that make it alright to do it? Should we accept it and do nothing? If all of your friends jumped off a building, would you do the same?

Easier said than done. Abusing the platform isn't cool, but it's been going on for a while now.
Every now and then people like you and other accounts would make a post observing voting abusing cases, some accounts shout out "let's change the culture", some saying "let's change the system", either of the changes might work actually. but that's it.
Although some efforts have been done. Nothing ever changes, except now we all know most are abusing so, but besides, nothing changes and I doubt will ever change.
I agree but that doesn't mean it can't be changed. What I would like to see is a community powered account with a couple million SP delegated dealing with these kind of abuse.
Kind of like what @steemcleaners is doing but only looking at serious vote abuse cases like this one.
Maybe put up a weekly wall of shame post to trending listing all of the accounts on the caught 10xing themselves, burning them to ashes with a couple million SP and inviting the rest of the community to throw in their small flags just to show that we are against such behavior.
Been thinking about it for a while now, should write up my thoughts and see what the community thinks about it.
Then again, vote exchange is the same thing no? 10 alt account, 1 alt account, vote exchange based on SP with 9 other accounts. Maybe for bigger accounts it's difficult to find equal SP holders, so they are creating 10 alts...Basically everyone is kinda doing either these three. If there need a wall of shame, don't think there're enough places tho.
But I appreciate your efforts.
It would be a difficult task but I think it's one worth pursuing for the long term sustainability of this platform. Think about it. If most just milk the system, who is going to reward the newcomers?
