Yes and as I've already mentioned it is important. Moreover, I'm happy that this post is reaching more and more people and others are also realising that what some people are doing just to earn money. I just want that community should know what is going on here.
It looks like a lot of people only really care about money and not ethics.
Steemit was supposed to be for the common man but like anything else, people get greedy and forget the common man.
The is the reason why Communism doesn't work, because the people at the top become greedy and keep all the money and stop distributing it to the people like they should. It's just human nature and may not ever change. It keeps getting worse and worse and most people suffer while a few at the top have everything.
So maybe the Steemit concept of it being for the common man won't work after all. Maybe the people here who are at the top have forgotten the common man concept.
It appears to me that Steemit is really all about the money now. That Steemit saying of "come for the money, stay for the community" is just a dream of how it was intended to be.
Random - I think it's always about money. That's just this world we live in - for better or for worse. Whether she's real or not doesn't matter - whoever she is, or the team behind her is (or him...could be hims) - is/are incredible marketers.
You hit the nail on the head about communism - though Steemit is clearly as capitalist as you get ;-)
But look at a lesson in all of this - this is the 2nd or 3rd time i've seen this in my feed now, so people are resteeming it. You clearly have some investigative - or at least instigative ;-) - talents...
Why not learn from this ms sweet jjjjj or whoever - and build up a brand around yourself? Probably under a new account since your rep has been so damaged.
You're always gonna look like the bad guy calling out people on the top. Unless you are an equally hot leggy blonde who challenges miss sweet J to a pillow fight !
See that's exactly why I don't believe Steemit was created for the common man :-/ I don't think many things are. Now I love this platform, I do - but remember the creators own something like 84% of all existing Steem.
That said - it certainly gives the 'common man' a higher chance to succeed then other platforms. But I think believing this was ever something where everyone has an equal chance is wishful thinking - as, since you pointed out, there is a hierarchy based 100% on monetary wealth.

Don't get angry, get creative.
Thank you @blunderbabe!
I agree, its all about money even though Steemit was created for the "common man" where everyone has an equal chance.
If thats the case then why are we divided between minnows, dolphins and whales?
Mankind may never change.

hugs back.
Maybe it's disguised to be for the common man while behind the scenes it's a money machine to make the people at the top get rich.
I suppose we all have an opportunity to make a lot of money on Steemit. Maybe with good marketing and the right connections.
Steemit is just like anywhere else. Cash is king and the common man is forgotten.
@donkeypong is still flagging my blogs and replies but I see its okay for him to flag, troll and harass people since he has 321,668.739 of STEEM.
I actually had to ask @donkeypong to stop trolling and spamming my blogs and he ignored my request and that's when it became harassment.
It wasn't until I commented to other members that he was harassing me to get him to finally stop.
For me though, I question someones honesty and identity since Steemit supposedly holds up those values and I am being harassed by "whales".
Their "whale" status on Steemit won't save them from the governed laws of the internet though.
WEll this has really affected my decision to invest in Steem, thats for sure.
