Correcting some misinformation

There is a lot of misinformation out there so...

1. The former witnesses never had any control over the steemit stake.
2. The new witnesses have no control over the steemit stake
3. The steemit stake controls the current top 30 witnesses and they are changed on a whim by a single account's vote particularly when a controversial HF is planned. This has been the case every day since 22.5. The old witnesses were never back in total control.
4. Regarding the caring people, the vast majority of the development community, witness community and content creation community went to #hive. Take a look at the top 500 witnesses for evidence.
5. Justin Sun never "removed the temporary witnesses" leaving the old witnesses in control. He did not hand pick successors until after Hive was created.
6. No exchanges ever froze accounts. Justin Sun tricked them into powering up their customers' funds. This meant that those funds were locked into the 13 week power down time frame which was a rule of the blockchain at that time. This was a decision by Justin Sun and the exchanges involved.
7. A cartel would be a centralized organization. These members were not that and many of them were enemies of each other. They only banded together when presented with the threat of Justin Sun.
8. There is no need to battle with members of any other chain. You should care only about fairness on this chain. What account do on other chains are of no consequence to you.
9. Right now, Steem is gaining the reputation as being a blockchain that is run by an unprofessional tyrant with childish servants as his puppets.
10. The outright robbery of funds from accounts is the first thing any potential investor will hear about. You all should be worried about that.
