Good post, a message repeated throughout history.
But, unfortunately, many don't have a long vision of the past in order to learn from it. Patterns keep repeating when they don't need to. We can do better.
Yeah, same old story. One of these posts you make I will quit being a cynic (maybe). I bit the bullet and voted for you for witness, not something I typically do as I don't know who many are, and some of the few I do seem pretty shady. I hope if you get the position you want you don't find yourself identifying with Serpico.
LOL, thanks :) Serpico, as an insider being taken down by my 'compatriots'? Hehe. I've been to the mid 30's as a witness, but that didn't last due to my server having issues. I was the #1 top earner on Steem for a month or so back in the winter of 2017, but I got taken down by some whales who were witnesses... flagged over and over because they didn't like my content, me or who supported me :/ My 15 minutes of fame and success are over ;)
Or grown as those who value principles and strength are drawn to you and the message you have. As to the Serpico comment, guess you have already been there done that, lol.
