Sorry had loads on my head recently.
It seems like you got treated like a member of @berniesanders goon squad hence the flags
He's been doing it to loads of people(including myself this post shows what I got attacked for decide for yourself if you agree with his actions)

So about time he got some of his own behaviour backfire at him i do feel its important to point out that they are the ones who attacked first and started the flag war!I dont know what your comments were but from what your saying it seems you were hit by a stray bullet or an over zealous fan.
You mention the 0 sum game I agree to a point but only if he would use his voting power to vote on others people work if he would just pack up and withdraw his investment others might get a bigger percantage of the pie but the pie would be smaller the more steempower people have the bigger the reward pool so realy an ideal situation for smaller players is when the whales flag each other nullifying each others voting power?or am I getting something wrong here?
I agree with you about the trending page and questionable quality of many of the top earning posts I cant quite work out why selfvoting paid voting paid reesteming are allowed in the system but they are and we are users not creators of the system so sorry but I dont agree with attacking people for being successful in the system whilst following its rules and there will always be somebody who's on top in the lead.
I know flagging is there in the system too but as said earlier I think flagging out of your own personal decision is one thing and running a campaign a very racist one as well in this situation is an entirely different story and while many like yourself have been acting for the right reasons and with good intentions there are a lot more who have been stuffing there own pockets thanks to this situation just look at bernie sanders posts and self votes could you be more of a hypocrite than him?
Happy easter.
