There is no 'right way' or 'wrong way', there is only the consensus after 7 days. If someone voting in opposition to a vote distribution mechanism is enough to sink this ecosystem, we have bigger issues. This is actually a good opportunity to educate those ignorant about downvoting, decentralized governance, proof of stake, and consensus. Steem should be shattering the mental models created by traditional social media. The opportunity cost of downvoting was just too high to accomplish that, so the uninformed user got spoiled for a long time watching the concept of voting being a one-way street.
The expectation needs to change, and if that means the people locked into that old mental model leaving, then so be it. I'd be willing to bet those same people would come rushing back at the first scent of a bull market.
I'm okay with some of my rewards being redistributed. I do okay anyway. If others make a little less from SBI then we get it back from other votes. We have bigger issues to deal with.
@mmmmkkkk311 is attempting to use his flags to intimidate Steemians into abandoning their support for @steembasicincome.
He baselessly claims it is a "ponzi scheme" which just shows that either he doesn't understand how it works or (more likely) he just doesn't understand what a ponzi scheme even is! And the blatant hypocrisy in him trying to fight "vote selling" when that is exactly what he did with his bidbot! As as bidbot owner with over a dozen alt accounts he is in no place to judge what is right or wrong here on Steem. Now he is mad that his scam has ended. So like an upset child, he has decided to take out his anger (caused only by his own failures) on other innocent people. Making him nothing more than a big bully!
I am here to counter @mmmmkkkk311's bullying. I will upvote every post/comment that he downvotes. You can support my anti bullying upvotes by delegating (links below) Steem Power to @ilovemk311. And you can help keep this message visible by upvoting this comment or by purchasing SBI shares for @mk311isabully which will help to counter the downvotes that @mmmmkkkk311 will surely send my way. Which I highly encourage him to do as the more downvoting power he wastes on me the less he can use to downvote the real content creators here on Steem that would otherwise become his victims!
I ask YOU my fellow Steemians to help me take a stand for our Steem community.
With this jerk bullying innocent people we are seeing many great content creators leave due to the drama and negativity that @mmmmkkkk311's downvote campaign brings to the blockchain. While he claims he is trying to defend his investment he is actually unwittingly destroying it.
SBI is an initiative that has done nothing but help promote onboarding and community building here on the Steem blockchain. Let us not turn our back on it out of fear for getting downvoted. Instead lets stand up for this great initiative that has helped so many people and helped the Steem community to grow and thrive!
Everyone gets a say in how the rewards are distributed and you chose your way. I think Steem has bigger problems than SBI.
