Thanks, a nice reply - though, to split hairs, I do work on the basis of experience providing me an indication of what the future could bring. It just does not make the future a fact, as we and others are the random factors which can alter the results.

I wrote my message because I saw someone else being attacked for his negative opinions (about Hive) and it reminded me of my being attacked by people like berniesanders, who used his power at steemit to knock-the-sh*t out of anyone he disagreed with (in my case, about vaccinations). All I could do is hope and pray he gets himself vaccinated with every single vaccine Gates wants to force on our kids, but to keep posting and being on the platform, I had to stop fighting him. That still rankles.
