Title of Video - "Steemit flagging to reduce rewards, it's GREAT"
One hell of a charitable chap, eh?

Nice find, thanks for the share.
On a side note, I really have to start question the system itself. If there is some trickery going on behind the scenes to favour the developers who are profiting as well as those who first got on board. Of course I understand they have earned or invested to get where they are, but does that make it okay to abuse it (and lie about it, he never confronted my accusation of putting the majority of his voting power into self voting himself and his gang while leaving the scraps for those he claims to be helping so much)? I grow tired of bashing my head against a wall with this guy and his gang of brown-nosers.
My example is this.... I did not upvote @avva's comment below. And yet the system is claiming I did. And when I go to remove the vote, it throws the error "Vote weight cannot be 0" and refuses to remove my supposed ghost upvote. Strange, very strange indeed.
I have decided to let this go. Better things to do with my day, and (let's face it) the system is built to allow such abuse as well as for folks like him to encourage others to take advantage of it while they can. Who am I to call anyone out? If thousands of people wanna cram their noses so far up this guy's ass, while he selectively puts his own up that of the handful of Whales that are basically abusing the system as he is, so be it.
Yet is surely does appear to me more and more this system is just a trick to fool newcomers into investing into a system who's reward pool is being raped by those who got into it early.
I up voted a whale article the other day...it jumped about $9.00 - i don't have that kind of steem! i don't know, maybe others voted at the very same second? Anyway, i can't really prove what's going on, but with social Darwinists like @craiggrant around, i'm getting a little uncomfortable...
Keep in mind the cache... if you open the link and one person upvoted with $0.01, often in the time it takes you to read the post and check out the first comment or two others have upvoted. But until you refresh the page or vote they don't show. I caught it where it said the post had one upvote for a penny but after I upvoted it changed to something like 7 upvotes for a quarter or something.
Keep on keeping on, righteous is in the eye of the beholder (even if the beholder has criminal and fraudulent intent, he still believes he's righteous..... that ain't us man [insert "The Dude" GIF here]).
Snuck this in, just found it organically. Won't let me upvote since is 12 hours from the 7 day mark.... needs more
!!!
I guess.... those who see the obvious are choosing one of three things they can do about it: Join his crew (the majority), ignore it (the bulk of who's left), or fighting it (just a few of us).
Really shows who we are as a society as a whole. Sad, really.
