RE: The Great Tron-Steem Debate - Is A Preemptive Strike Ever Justified?
Crypto Briefing reached out to Ned Scott about the move by Tron. Surprisingly, the former CEO seemed supportive of the action by Justin Sun, saying that “witnesses/portion of the community literally stole its [Steemit Inc’s] coins. Steemit owed them nothing.” He continued, “Steemit owes no one anything and anything else is grasping at straws / bullying to get your way/power… Fact: no pre mine, no investors.”
The Steem community was outraged by Scott’s comments, saying that over Steem’s four-year history that the founder had promised that these coins would be used to “decentralize” and wouldn’t be used in voting.

You see, this is my point. Ned did not break that promise, he simply sold his stake to someone else. The witnesses then decided that Justin was going to use that stake to vote them out, so they froze it.
Lest us not we forget, that the @freedom vote was powered up by ninja-mined Steem, so you could argue that the promise was broken a long time ago, but nobody said boo to a goose then. Now suddenly they're outraged.
Just seems a bit disingenuous to me.

Too bad we can't code logical-coherence into the system.
There are so many people here who claim to be "libertarians" and yet, they act as de facto AUTHORITARIANS.
