There's about five top writers that I can see doing this technique. They have several themes. When preparing their daily rant, they pull a former article from one of those themes, rework it a little, and presto--and brand new original article.

I guess I could be branded in the same way, talking about an alternative governance. But no one is reading my stuff!

With the exception of one top writer, I try not to read any of them. But they keep showing up on my feeds. They do not understand how Medium is giving them an advantage.
