Can't buy me love? Can't buy me dignity!steemCreated with Sketch.

Money makes the world go around. It's amazing how you can figure out an ideology of a specific person or "thing" by following the money.

If SP were to be a man's "worth" (oh snap better also include female); you would think that they have a large "member", but the truth is that it's easier to have minions do your bidding.

Behind every man is a women? Well I guess not this day and age, but behind every ideological down-voter there is a delegated SP driver. When you speak out, you see you will NEVER get an upvote based upon ideology. Who wants to upvote someone who you don't agree with?

Sour grapes? No way! I have a mirror, and I can look into it without being a sell-out. Anyone will say anything for money, and it's just the same on Steemit. People are too scared to speak up.. might lose that 0.50 cents.

I get it!

The "establishment" is fine and running the same exact way as a centralized system. Who would have thought that decentralization leads to centralization. Centralization doesn't necessarily mean there is a room with a round table and the boogy man planning everything. No, life is just tribal. It means people naturally get together and fight for the same ideologies. Join the bandwagon and you get an upvote!

I have seen so many "Witnesses" delegate to all sorts of interesting folks. It's a smart strategy because they don't have to be the ones who are blatant racists, narcissists, ignoramus', anti-vac whatever!

The name of the game is money! But would you sell out your own ideologies and beliefs for money?
I prefer looking in the mirror and standing up for what I believe is right. If I don't make fans who cares! Going against the majority is generally the right approach. If someone said money can't buy me love (which is debatable), then money certainly cannot buy you dignity. Perhaps that's debatable as well.. but sellouts and people who don't speak out are definitely the true sheeple.

Agree. Most people are willing to sell their values ​​for money, it is to the excessive materialism that we have arrived at today, and we do nothing to change the system if we do not change the mentality. In Steemit the upvotes work many times, and unconsciously, as positive reinforcement, say what I want you to say and you will have a reward, it is as I said quite unconscious, but at the same time, quite powerful.

Most people are willing to sell out, agreed.
