Hey @grindle, it looks like @amirl gave you a little downvote on this comment. He started trashing Hive and extolled the "awesomeness of Blurt" and went there. He's been downvoting me, and a couple to @meesterboom, for a while whilst he powers down and it looks like you copped one here. So, I've thrown a bigger upvote on your comment.
I will never understand the politics of the hive!!!( though my guru @slobberchops is doing his best to educate me!) thanks @galenkp for your support, cheers.
There's mean-spirited, bitter people on Hive just like in the offline world and they'll always prioritise themselves. This particular user went out of his way to say some pretty hateful things about me, (Nazi, anti-semite, white-trash and so on, despite me not deserving it, or even being white in fact. @meesterboom stood up to it, as did I, and the user proceeded to spew vitriol, denigrate Hive and then go to Blurt. He's back now casting these downvotes but they really are irrelevant.
I've had almost 70 downvotes in the last few days from him, Boomy has many also, and they all mean nothing. I just wanted to address the one you got as it was probably only cast on you to annoy me. They all amount to literally nothing though and only serve to hammer home the reasons multiple people (not just Boomy and I) addressed this entitled, self-serving user in the first place.
You may get some more so let me know I'll throw upvotes on them.
cheers @galenkp
