That is exactly made the post. Ultimately it is the whales who call the shots on this platform. This post was intended as a few of things.

• Illustrate differences in perceptions
• Illustrate instances where people are arguing in such a way that they become hypocrites.
• Illustrate yet again, as I have many times how damaging the current down vote system is to perception of the platform
• Make people realize that in an environment where money matters, voting down topics you dislike from a financial perspective is no different from censorship. The words were there, but their ability to receive rewards from people that WANTED to hear their message is cancelled by people who DON'T WANT that type of message mentioned. In a world where finances are important, they may not be able to devote the time to offer such content. Unless we get the people saying THEY SHOULD DO IT FOR FREE in an environment where others are posting easy things to post and making a lot of money. Yeah, that argument is REALLY convincing.(sarcasm)
• Make people think
• Make people fixated in their views possibly consider there may be something to other views.
• Help the platform so we can grow it

I also did not name any specific whales as I don't want the whales to react in any other way than to possibly start THINKING about what is actually good for the platform rather than defending the actions of a few that does have really negative connotations for the platform.

For those taking such actions and being the ones gaming the system maybe they'll start to think of long term implications of their actions rather than the short term goals of how much they can suck out of the system.
