No where is fair then, thought the idea of decentralised social media is to promote equity but now shortcut has been introduced through bit and vote buying.

Vote buying isn't the root source of the inequality, the pre-mine and wealth imbalances that predated steem or steemit contributed more to the distribution of steem. But vote buying and circular voting by already large accounts does ensure that smaller accounts never see the light of day on the trending page.

In what world does allowing people complete freedom and to just manage each other would there ever be equity? The foundation of this system is no different than that of any other social network, the sheep will always praise the wolve .
