Why I am quitting steemit - and you should too
<html>
<p>Steemit is a dictatorship, and I learned it the hard way.&nbsp;</p>
<p>For the past 12 hours I have been the target of a personal attack both verbal and with flagging by the endless bot army of one @berniesanders (or @nextgencrypto or @engagement or 100s of other FAKE profiles) , the self-proclaimed dictator of steemit. If this is what @ned and @dan envisioned, then I want no part of it.&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>And neither should you.</strong></p>
<p>I know some people here depend on the income from steemit. I am certain they will continue posting till they get big enough to attract the attention of the dictator, who will then <strong>bury them</strong>.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Like so:</p>

<h2><br></h2>
<h2>Anyone can be next.</h2>
<h2>No one is safe.</h2>
<h2>The platform is doomed as long as @berniesanders is allowed to terrorise its users.</h2>
<p><br></p>
<p>Me, I will go post my content somewhere where stort stories, technical marketing guides and random life tips will not get me called names of personally attacked. Because apparently, <strong>posting original content on this platform is punished</strong> if it threatens the dictatorship in any way and is considered "being a bitch". Or as he put it:</p>
<p>@berniesanders:</p>
<blockquote>That's what you get for acting like such a bitch. GFY, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.&nbsp;</blockquote>
<p>Since posting original content and promoting it is considered being a bitch by this self-proclaimed (and undisputed!) dictator of steemit, I will now go be a bitch elsewhere, until someone decides that is platform is worth saving from the likes of @berniesanders .&nbsp;</p>
<p>Until then, I truly wish for you all to find a rewarding platform to post on that is not seeded with so much hate and negativity. Or one that has leaders who care about it being a content platform more than about their own profits from it.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Let me know if you come across one of those.</p>
<p>I did not come to steemit to be attacked. I was here to share my writing, and get feedback from as many readers worldwide as I could. Apparently, that's not what steemit is about. <strong>Steemit is all about being bullied by those with the power</strong>.</p>
<p>Peace out.</p>
<p><em>P.S. I would like to personally thank @patrice , @reggaemuffin , @furious-one , @locke , @suesa and everyone else who took the time to speak to me on Discord. I am also logging off Discord for a few days as I am worried the verbal attacks and bullying will follow me there. Going to focus on writing for whatever platform welcomes me.</em></p>
<p><em>Good luck surviving the cesspool of crap posts and bully-whales!</em></p>
