and what can I do or what can we do?

I'm not sure at all but I think that it is ALREADY being a monopoly from the moment a whale votes you negatively without justification and you lose the right to win something in a post, it's more than just that with whales, also if many users vote even if they are not whales, if you have the bad luck to find some bad people 10 or 20 who attack you, what can you do if we are on a decentralized platform? 1 against 10 or against 20 can not do little ?, in the end as in real life who has more contacts or more friends always wins if they join and who do not have many contacts or friends are more unprotected.
Maybe that's one of the problems in a city without law. Is not Steemit like that now? as a kind of city without law without police? or I'm wrong?
