@berniesanders Upvoted you because you took a stand you believe in, whale or minnow standing up for what you believe deserves my vote for whatever it's worth.

But forget who the poster is outside of steemit and consider that this post is a change for this person in general. A person with massive appeal and a large fanbase both on and off the platform. It shows he is trying to listen to people and restate what he's learned by teaching. This posting I think was meant for the followers he's brought over since he was the first of his social group here.

To my mind that makes this post worth an upvote, because it shows rapid personal growth and a desire to teach his rapidly expanding social circle. And before anyone even thinks of downvoting me or calling me a sycophant for saying that, read the rest of my posts and comments regarding this posting.

Anyways @berniesanders steemit needs a meta site for FAQ and best practice tips, the lack of that is why you keep seeing this topic come up. Literally new comers have no way of knowing this stuff.
