I chose a side the second I saw his bot flagging people who had no idea that commenting on informative posts was a bad idea. He's a digital tyrant, regardless if he's right sometimes or not. Much of the point of Steemit is to get away from authoritarian structures.

I'm not bothered if someone makes tons of money and cashes in. That is their right, and it is our right to decide to no longer support that person if their actions bother us. We're not here to get bullied into seeing things the @berniesanders way, or to end up as cannon fodder in a fight that has nothing to do with us.

@berniesanders is to be openly and consistently opposed until he quits with the bully act, IMHO.
