In August 2017, @berniesanders was kind enough to let me know he would be downvoting my posts with his @nextgencrypto account on steemit.chat!

Voting Bots Providing Big Payouts!
As we can see, the @buildawhale voting bot by @themarkymark is the largest single source of upvotes for @berniesanders allowing for some of the highest author rewards on Steem using delegated Steem power in exchange for bids.
Delegations to @buildawhale can be viewed at https://steemworld.org/@buildawhale by selecting delegations in. @blocktrades provides the single largest delegation at 1,546,807.851 Steem Power equal to about $3 million dollars worth of voting power.
Self Voting The Rest!
With over a million Steem power, @berniesanders is one of the top Steem power holders in our community! Self-upvotes provide him the second biggest payout through @randowhale and the rest of the accounts under his control. @steemed-proxy has also added hundreds of dollars to recent posts while @blocktrades and @thejohalfiles provided two of the largest downvotes on the post about @blocktrades. We might get a good laugh remembering that @berniesanders wrote about @blocktrades and then voted the post up with @buildawhale twice as much as @blocktrades could vote it down.
Welcome to My World!
@berniesanders and @ats-david recently have been in my thoughts each day. Each are top downvoters and critics on many of our posts including mine. Do I have critical thoughts? Absolutely. I have fought back in my mind a hundred times. I have made devastating comebacks from entire post and video ideas to epic one liners. None of these have I shared. Today we see this in what we hope is a spirit of love, acceptance, and belonging from one member of our community featuring the amazing worth of another.
Anyone in my world is here to be loved and I have been falling short on loving the both of you. Starting yesterday as I was reading The Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World by Dalai Lama, Desmond Tutu, and Douglas Carlton Abrams, a very helpful meditation came up. For twenty minutes or so, I held both @berniesanders and @ats-david in my mind repeatedly thinking "I love you" and "I wish for you to have all of the joy in the world" along with seeing this post written. As I write this post I do that now even though I know neither of your "real names" or "identities."
Fortunately we have a direct heart to heart connection we can all feel if we are sensitive enough to experience it. Every day that each of you continues to summon me I shall ensure I remember to hold you in loving meditation to love you exactly as you are. All 500,000 of us here are equally valuable members of this community and today we join together in love to celebrate this.
Calling a Heart a Heart!
While I enjoyed a great laugh from the title "When ya call a spade a spade..." at https://steemit.com/steem/@berniesanders/blocktrades-throwing-another-bitch-fit, it also inspired me to call a heart a heart because it takes one to know one.
Every one of us is loved no matter what we do here. Each of our contributions is meaningful regardless of how much it earns. Every witness is important from rank 1 to rank 400. Every upvote matters. Every thought matters.
Today I am grateful I have the courage to call a heart a heart and to be open to responding with love to whatever comes into my life. After many years of responding with hate and using hateful language and suffering in the hell of hateful isolation, today I am lucky to be here to have something else to share.
@berniesanders and @ats-david we love you and thank you for all you have done to add value to Steem! I am honored you have so much passion for the posts I share along with those shared by so many more of us. We love you and and value your contributions so much we thought it might be nice to all take a look at some of them here today!
I am therefore calling you both a beautiful heart that I love as much as my family, friends, and upvoters. Each time I see your names in votes and comments, I shall feel joy to remain connected with you and at your request to receive unconditional love.
Love,
Jerry Banfield
I have explained my downvoting of your posts. If you’re going to whine about it to try to make more money, it won’t turn out well for you. People have tried this in the past and just found themselves in a death spiral. Ask krnelol how it worked out for him.
I don’t have anything else to say, other than that I think you’re absolutely horrible for the image of this platform and I will downvote your posts that attempt to suck even more rewards from the pool to be wasted on bullshit “promoting” or “advertising” to your fake followers on other platforms. And that’s my right as a stakeholder. You’d do well to understand this simple concept, seeing as how you want to be one of the biggest (and most irritatingly punchable) faces for the platform.
TM Someone else.
Any funds generated from this awesome GIF will go to the original author who will remain nameless until he d0x's himself.
it is very funny. lol )
I didn't read this pathetic post, but just the fact that you wrote one says a lot about you and the sad state of your life. I hope all of your readers finally see just how pathetic your attempt at swindling them really is.
This is a great last ditch effort to try to remain relevant here on Steemit, but, you're failing and eventually will fade away just like the other pathetic cucks before you. It's time to move on to another platform where you can try to scam money from other sheep, your time here is done.
To Jerry's followers, don't be sheep. If his pathetic rants make you feel better or fill some void in your life, I suggest you find some time away from Steemit.
We know you love @berniesanders jerry
Wow! How can I be like them Sir?
Life must be pretty dull forcing love and happiness on everything all the time
Scammers like Jerry will do/say anything to try to keep the sheep following.
Hi jerrybanfield,
Nice work sir
I actually enjoy reading both your blog and the posts written by bernie sanders. They are interesting and the feud is actually pretty interesting drama for a social network. I respect your attitude a lot jerry. Keep doing good for the steem community and know that there will always be roadblocks.
I just started using Steemit and am new to the whole platform, still trying to figure things out here... Do these Bots really add any value to quality content besides getting upvotes? I guess it's nice to get more upvotes on a blog post, but it makes more sense to get them from real people who appreciate the content versus a Bot.
You're doing great job to promote steemit. Don't waste your time and energy on stuff you can't change. Time will tell who is right and who is wrong. Keep grinding, my friend.
Agree!!!!!!
Curious what your opinion on this is now. :)
He was the only guy at that time who was promoting steem. He has a lot of followers outside the steem and I think he did bring a lot of good people to the platform. He's a weirdo and I don't like his approach but in a bigger picture, he's irrelevant.
Same with Craig grant and Trevon.
this is a really great chance to beginners like me to be able to make their posts read as much as possible.
I am following you for the last 5 months and your content is indeed valuable,, so thanks,, I even kept my SBD almost 50 SBD and did not sell them based on one your posts where you predicted Steem and SBD could be worth $10,, anyway I am a winner based on your writings.
Thanks & Cheers
Another flag war? I've been too busy with work to notice any of it and I am kinda glad I didn't. Seriously, you guys, is this flagging bullshit really worth your time?
deleted
Glad you found your love for @berniesanders and @ats-david finally but..............
Instead of reading - - - "he Book of Joy: Lasting Happiness in a Changing World by Dalai Lama, Desmond Tutu, and Douglas Carlton Abrams" - - - maybe try reading "Sun Tzu's Art of War" I think I may need to read it soon. But the Betty Crocker Cookbook is much more interesting than either of those books I think. Smile and carry on.
Yes, indeed. Great book which happened to be on the USMC Commandant's reading list at one point in time whereby I was exposed to it. Just perusing it, one may be overwhelmed by the sheer intelligence and philosophical insight of the man.
But yes, Mr. Banfield is clearly under attack. Not sure if the ferocity of said attack is justified but killing them with kindness may not work in this instance.
Not when it comes to berniesanders and his house of cards. He has over 52 accounts, or active downvote followers, I'm not sure but he hit me with himself and 52 other downvotes, only good thing is he does not do a lot of damage anymore, but that could change.
Jerry, what are you doing playing with the turtles at the zoo? They aren't buying your BS either. . .

Jarry has been a big proponent of steemits growth. Thanks Jerry, keep on rocking!
Jerry is one of the biggest douches on steemit
Well I have been noticing and writing about these downvote abuse thing, but I guess Steemit admins are not minding to care about it.
Waaaw.. Amazing have steem power by @berniesanders.. Million steem power.

Good Post dear bro..Thankful..
I came from myanmar.Nice to meet you.
This is a very interesting flip the switch and I will stay tuned to see how your heart song plays out on this..I wish the flagging would end..will it ever..or will anyone of this platform forever be bullied by those feeling content is not worthy according to "they" its easy to stay silent when it is "others" getting flagged but a harsh reality when it is the I..isnt it? wishing everyone bless here..and wishing the flagging would end all together
And only 1/3 of the followers between all of his accounts and he doesn't even lie and make the platform look bad on YouTube. I wonder what he is doing that you are not @jerrybanfield.........oh yeah it's called being an honest good human.
You're a master for the promotion of technical details, I got into Steemit for you. You can see my last post as the oldest Steemit blogger on the planet. Thank you for your support.
drama, baby!
In life there will be continues challenges.We can agree or disagree this is normal. Just for the info because of Jerrybanfield I am learning everyday about cryptocurrencies. Because of him I discover Steemit and I am thankful. I believe nobody is obliged to follow and vote for him.This is a personal motivation. Life continues anyway. Thanks Jerry for your blogs..
"Convert to Steem" has disappeared from my wallet has anyone else had the same thing happen.
Please give me some vote

Your post was mentioned in the hit parade in the following category:Congratulations @jerrybanfield!
I have recently been downvoted on a few of my posts, no idea why ; and when i asked, i dont get a response .
And so we see the ultimate outcome from most Proof Of Stake systems.
If you don't stop the arseholes from becoming big stakeholders, you end up with aresholes running the asylum.
And the asylum isn't going to be worth $10 a coin with this type of BS going on.
