We Need Your Help to Protect Steem

This line:

Additionally, they decided to implement a selective distribution of their forked chain, not only excluding the Steemit Inc. stake but also from normal users that proxied or voted on Steemit Inc.'s witnesses.

Combined with this line:

The barrier for these rules can be lowered at any time when the circumstances require it and consensus is reached.

Those two thoughts lead me to believe you're attempting to freeze funds and hold those funds as a ransom until those excluded from the Hive airdrop receive the airdrop.

Extortion? That's a serious question, not an insult. This post doesn't explain which restrictions will be placed upon the accounts you're planning to disrupt. If your plan is to freeze funds until one side agrees to pay something, it's extortion. Extortion is typically frowned upon in our society. If I see anything that involves any sort of restrictions lifted once one side pays something to the other, I'm calling it extortion. Simple as that. So you might want to rethink your plan, if that's the plan, because it's not a good plan.

If that's their goal it's doubly hilarious. It's like they're saying "We will kill Steem if you do not give us our Hive parachutes which we want because we know Steem is going to die. And we know it because we're doing our best to kill it."

Some of these people act like children. Them missing out on that initial Hive airdrop was no different than the time I was left out of the Palnet airdrop. All I had to do was be professional, let them know, give it time, stay calm. I eventually received that airdrop. Stress free. Just had to be patient. But these people are losing their goddamn minds over something incredibly simple.

The appeal process for the Hive airdrop was always on the table. All people had to do was be calm and appeal. The community gets to vote them in. Pretty simple stuff and I was warming up to the idea of voting so some of these folks get added to the list. But based upon these actions here today, many just lost my vote of approval. I've been watching closely the entire time. If I wanted trash in my goddamn neighborhood, I'd simply knock over the garbage cans on a windy day. And I'm not going to apologize for being honest either. I've been watching some of these people act like psychos for weeks. I wasn't just going to vote blind. Wanted to know exactly what I'd be approving. It would be incredibly irresponsible of me to ignore what's happening here and place a gift into the hands of the undeserving.

There's no way this is about "milking" rewards when all they had to do was downvote like any other rational human being would. They're bitter about an airdrop. They're mad they made a dumb choice and don't want to look like losers so they're going on a power trip all while not realizing when you trip, you fall.

Their fearless leader is a drunk psychopath, so that doesn't help either. I have never seen such idiocy. I didn't think humanity was capable of being so stupid, until I witnessed this shit-show, here, over the past few weeks. I still can't believe it's even real. And some are so numb around here that they can't even feel the massive dildo being shoved up their asses.

I hope these are my last words published on this blockchain. I'm done here. This place and these people are officially fucked up beyond all recognition.

There's the demands I saw coming. Now did I call it, or did I call it, and what did I call it?

Yup.
