Yes, folks. I’ve tricked you.

After years of talking about individual self-ownership and all that silly stuff, I have made the full transition to Marxism. Someone—an individual of most level-headed and astute perception, has finally discovered my evil ruse, and exposed me on the blockchain for all to see.

It’s time I come clean. Everything I am trying to do with my life has been nothing more than an intricate and insidious, smoke and mirrors swindle. An evil facade in order to secure my massive 5 to 20-dollars-a-day average from the Steem blockchain. My family secretly has a private jet. And our own island where I bathe in pearls and clean my bottom from a solid gold bidet. We dine on money, most evenings.

The worst part though...and...god help me...how it pains me to admit it....

I sometimes utilize the downvote feature here on Steemit.

The flags are red, just like my warped worldview.

When I look in the mirror now I wonder. What is this wretched husk of a man which looms before me, so utterly devoid of scruples!? What absolute moral bankruptcy encased in filthy, Communistic greed!

If only I could lead an honest life. Maybe volunteer at some local schools. Maybe try to spread the values of some worthwhile philosophy. Who knows, perhaps some would even value my work...But that’s all silly talk now. I’ve sold my soul. I’ve downvoted.

I have committed the ultimate blockchain blasphemy here on Steemit. I can no longer call myself a Voluntaryist.

Thank you, @thoughts-in-time, for exposing me, and so many others who have surprisingly so missed the mark in understanding what true, spiritual voluntaryism is. We have sinned. I hope that—and I know this is silly for a damned man to dare utter—I hope that someday in your vast wisdom and infinite mercy you might forgive us.

We have downvoted spam and posts which we thought were disproportionately rewarded as the platform allows.

God help us, and may the god of spiritual voluntaryism have mercy upon our greedy, blockchain-forsaken souls. The sociopathy has taken me into realms of darkness deeper than I previously imagined possible. I only hope this message may save some of you from the path of blackened, abject damnation I have so foolishly chosen.
