Recently Justin Sun has a meeting with our witnesses and you can watch that here :
Both him and one guy who was representing him kept saying that they don't want any governance in steem !
While if you check here : https://steemitwallet.com/~witnesses you find them voting on 20 witnesses after the 7th ( The top 7 are our real witnesses !)
If you are not voting yet, please start to vote from 28 and go on !
An other thing also was asked by our witnesses is to remove the statement where Justin Sun is calling all steem community hackers :
But, till now he didn't remove that tweet !
Some people I don't even want to name are saying that we have to calm down ! How can we if the votes are not removed and the tweets as well ?
You have to understand that they are not telling the truth ! Steem wasn't hacked ! Witness worked more than 4 years together to build everything here and you want us to trust the wrong side ?
Also, I heard someone telling that we are doing that because we are racist. Really ?
Steem community is an international community and some chineese and korean people are even in the trending page ! We have also great developers from those countries, great steemians and even some witneeses who are supporting the old chain and working here for a lot time. Like @justyy for example who created this amazing website full of useful tools for steemians : https://steemyy.com/
I hope the conserned people who called us racist will take a look at this. I don't want to mention names !
The thing that we are all doing is spreading the truth ! Steem wasn't hacked ! The funds of people were secure in exchanges !
How you can't understand that they are liying to exchanges and telling them that steem is in danger. That's why exchanges used steem to power up and to vote on the witnesses supported by tron guys. There were even paid for that, take a look at all these transactions :

https://steemd.com/tx/dc88f74e7ce1ec5dabb5904ed50025c0e6411218
The total of 4 million and half steem were paid to binance to takeover the chain !
That's about $810,000, almost $1 million ! That's a lot of money ! We can't even track what was paid in fiat and that's more likely possible !
It has nothing to do with the origin of those people ! We have in steem people from all arround the world ! Steem is friendly ! Me myself I live in Russia and I'm originally from Algeria and I never seen any racism in steem.
I've seen more racism in the real life in both countries I live in, but I didn't see that in steem ! It's one of the biggest reasons why I'm excited about this blockchain.
We have no racism in steem !
Our lovely blockchain was attacked by exchanges and we are just protecting it. If an English exchange or any other exchange did the same, we will also protect the truth in the same way. We still having Chineese and Korean exchanges supporting us like https://www.kucoin.com/.
Join our momevent in twitter, we are really doing well and creating big awarness : https://twitter.com/hashtag/steem

Ahh, we're pretty racist, and "gasp" sexist too.
But, there are so many of us from so many different walks of life that it is difficult to be racist against one specific set of people .
We do seem to have strong prejudices against centralized entities that like to say they are "pro decentralization."
You are right though, Sun is investing a lot of backdoor money into steem, getting himself a deal and not spreading the wealth throughout the whole eco-system.
And, I thought it was funny when he said on the call that the exchanges weren't his "friends." Reading your post was the first time I realized that of course they aren't his "friends" if they were, they would not have charged him so much $$ to TRY and takeover the blockchain.
I am tired of the drama now, can we just forking fork?
Posted via Steemleo
I hope we fork as fast as possible. And I don't think we need to create a sister chain, but we should set new rules for our main blockchain were steemit inc and exchanges can't vote for witnesses and only approved steemians vote. Also, the concept of the proof of stake shouldn't be considered that much. I like it more when we were saying that steem is proof of brain.
If you want to know more about those guys, watch this video :
All the details about those guys !
The post shared in this tweet :
Very well written
Thanks. I will keep everyone updated always about the situation till we get the control of our blockchain back !
I know, you’re really consistent.
There are parts I agree with but come on no racism on steem? You are joking right?
Slogans from the flag wars....
A witness threatening the entire Korean community with flagging their accounts to zero if a post by one person he doesn't like isn't removed..
That's just a couple examples and there are tons of it like everywhere else to be honest I am not branding steem as a white supremacy site or the gathering of arian sissies but not point pretending reality doesn't exist
They weren't flagged because of racism, but because of circling votes and distributing them only between them. They weren't supporting the community. It's not healthy for the chain. We should support the quality in steem but not only pur friends. That's the proof of brain and it should be supported. I'm not telling that we shouldn't support our followers as well, but we should't create close circles of upvotes.
Using racist slogans against somebody because of underlying issues with the person other than his ethnicity doesn't make it any less racist! There is a different way of saying things possible!
If you think about it racism is always caused by underlying reasons
In America it was mainly poor white people that didn't want to be put suddenly on the same social and economic level as people who they were told they were better than all their lives just because of a different skin colour...
In Germany before the Holocaust Hitler ignited the nation by explaining to the poverty stricken nation how it's all the fault of a small wealthy part of the society who aren't even Germans...
It's always about the money if u dig deep enough
You see, you are saying yourself. It's not about racism like I said in the post. I think those witnesses just want others to respect ethics !
If those said witnesses hadn't been doing exactly the same themselves maybe I'd buy it...ethics and rules.. I think that was a situation were certain changes to the code should have been made by developers instead of a very unclear situation of rewarding some and punishing others for the same actions basicaly
Self voting Vs buying votes what's the difference? And yet buying votes became widely acceptable even though it is or was against the ethics and rules that applied at the time.
And anyway if a black person stole your car and then later in court when asked if you recognize who it was and you'd reply
I'm not saying flag wars were caused by racism i am saying there was a lot of racist slurs flying around at the time!and that didn't help anybody in anything
On a different matter Any idea whats happening with steem on poloniex there is literally 400 steem in the order book? Is Sun taking all the steem he can from his exchange:)?
We always had issues with poloniex. Most steemians are not using it anymore. A lot of steemians already lost money there. They may never send that. Or maybe they powered up that to vote for witnesses and their clients should wait when they will power down or they may pay from their pockets.
Word of advice if you think poloniex is bad don't get anywhere near hitbtc.com
I am honestly ashamed of myself for having defended their actions a few times online.
Are u a witness?
Yeah spewing the race card is going way too far. I surely don't see it. Of course that does not mean it does not exist. But very limited here on the block chain, imho
For sure, they are just looking for anything bad about steem to make us look bad. They want to hide their corruption to exchanges to control the governance here !
