Why is @Ned down-voting EOS posts?

I just don't get it. Why is @ned downvoting EOS posts? I hear nothing but positive things about Steem when listening to Dan and Brenden speak.

They use Steem as a shining example of how awesome DPoS is and the ability to build a strong community and support the most active on-chain activity.

Also, the EOS posts decline the payout, so this is essentially @ned trying to censor content that is NOT outside of the normal content guidelines. Seems to be a clear abuse of power.

Is this turning in to /r/bitcoin?

Thoughts?
