I for one upvoted not that my vote really counts, you are indeed looking for whales (not even dolphins will make a difference). But I've always agreed with your sentiment and there's a lack of actual discussion and acknowledging from everyone of the grotesque flaws in Steemit, they become like zombies in fear of downvotes and criticism. After I started to question the system the whales abandoned me (although I've gained a lot of minnows and even some tunas and baby dolphins friends!). They are cool like that with little jellyfishes like me ;)

Anyway Steemit is like a casino and to me it doesn't deserve the respect to actually put time and effort into a post, there's 90% chance it won't be rewarded and be forgotten in 60 minutes, there are so many examples. Many think they are all that and that they deserved but they basically got lucky or have a strong following outside this. Then there's still the 1-2% that are actually great content creators (and if you take out Steemit oriented devs I can only name 5-10...). Whales don't seem to miss any idiot with a following but they sure miss great content daily.

I do agree with some other comments though, you are just too upfront and it could get you in trouble (a downvote from a whale will kill your rep instantly).

I know it's sad but that's how it is.
