Steem has a disturbing problem in its platform that demolishes the claim that all members’ content has an equal chance of rising to the top. If you really want to do well on Steem, you must please its board of directors, known as “Steem Whales.” 

Normal people like you and I are labeled “Steem Minnows.” If a Minnow wants to make bank with Steemit, he should vet the Whales to learn their likes and dislikes. A Minnow can become rich if he publishes content the Whales like. On the other hand, if the Minnow hurts a Whale’s feelings, the Whale can crush the publisher and drain his earnings. 

Although whales are deep divers and usually shy in the wild, Steem Whales don’t hide, so you can meet them here: http://steemwhales.com/. The first 20 whales on the list all have Steam portfolios in excess of $1 million. 

Steem’s unfair defect should raise the eyebrows of thousands of activists. Almost all activists have been tortured by censorship at the hands of statist-owned publishing sites like Facebook, Google and YouTube. Steem claims to prohibit censorship and allow the most popular content to rise to the top as it earns the publisher a significant monetary reward. Unfortunately and sadly, that’s not the case. Steem content is heavily censored.

I noticed the unfair glitch in Steem from the beginning. My gift of skepticism that helped me become one of the best undercover narcs in the U.S. continues to help me smell when something’s fishy. After befriending a Steem Whale who chooses to remain anonymous, I learned Whales are the ones who decide if you get an “F” or an “A” on your report card.

How do we know some of the Steem Whales are not cops? I’m positive the CIA has tens of thousands of agents worldwide. We also know through court records they infiltrate and disrupt activist organizations. They have launched massive operations to hinder, collect and stop flows of information. I can’t prove government trolls are or will be Whales, but as an ex-agent, I’m positive that it has happened or is going to happen. This really sucks for me, because I’m famous for being one of law enforcement’s harshest critics. I don’t have much faith in Steemit because all it takes is one “Cop Whale” to keep me from earning money and reaching my audience. 

My anonymous Steem Whale friend explained that Whales gain their position by investing or earning $100,000 in Steem. The sizeable buy-in gives Whales so much voting power, they can totally kill your blog by not voting it through. No matter how many Minnow votes you get, one Whale can destroy your earnings with the push of a button. 

This unfair use of force recently happened to Dollar Vigilante’s Jeff Berwick, who lost a pile of cash. As you may know, Berwick has been crushing everybody on Steem. Apparently, a certain Whale forgot he wasn’t a fish, and forgot to come up for air. He didn’t surface, but his jealousy did. The killer Whale pompously used his $100,000 elite position to penalize Berwick’s success by down-voting one of his blogs to the loss of $2,000. 

I’m a drug expert, not an economics expert, so please double-check my claims. If you are not jealous of money expert Jeff Berwick, he is the one to ask. If you can’t reach Berwick, ask Janet L. Yellen or Alan Greenspan. They are both experts at manipulating cash out of Minnows, so they can probably verify the glitch is real.

I’m not quitting Steem, and neither should you. I am happy to be a publisher on Steemit and I am very grateful to be part of such a cool site and group of Steemers. I am currently running a campaign to invite all my Facebook, YouTube and online fans to follow me on Steem. I’m all in. I’m trying to power up everything I make because the experts predict Steem money will rapidly grow in value. I think it’s one of the best investments a person can make at this moment. 

The main reason I’m not quitting Steem is because I learned Steem is able to redesign its system so Whales can’t crush the lowly Minnows. Steem is operated by a group of very intelligent, passionate and sincere people. They want Steemit to be fair and lucrative for their content providers. I have faith they will make the correction, so hang in there with me and let’s see what happens. 

In the interest of fairness, allow me to say that most of the Whales are really good people who would never unfairly sabotage one of their members’ wallets. I give a big tip of the hat to that group because they did invest in a great project. It’s sad for the good Whales because it only takes one bad Whale to stink up an entire ocean.

P.S. Please don’t let cops become Whales. Thank you. Amen.
