RE: Hello Steemians, I'm Neil! Early crypto enthusiast and activist for decentralization
"I watched with disgust while the greed and cynicism drove the entire process to greater and greater heights. How bad did it get? Well, in later years they had to cover it up by giving it a more politically correct name. Thus, the “engagement loop” was born"
I'm not surprised at all and you confirm my worst suspicions about how the world is being run.
I'm happy that you're here contributing your wealth of knowledge. Steemit certainly needs people like you. Welcome.
It got pretty bad :) Drove me to a depression. But I'm glad I went through that experience, it helped me realize that this planet and all living things within it are much more valuable than any amount of money.
Yes I had a similar experience in a different industry: car sales. The environment was so thick with greed that I became physically and mentally ill within it. Now that I'm a science and tech writer, I've recovered and have a sense of purpose. Greed is a terrible disease.
