RE: What's Steem Doing? What Are We Doing? Something Meaningful for Society, or Just Getting and Moving Money Around?

in #steem6 years ago

I think there is a minority that want blockchain to be the decentralized elixir for the masses, the impoverished and disenfranchised worldwide. An alternative to the system of monopolization and oligarchs. Do I want to make some money too? Yeah. But what brought me here in the first place was to fight against a corrupt system. But I think unfortunately all social media tends to fall into that vortex of "look at me"/selfie society. How to walk the line will be an ongoing challenge. It's about creating a positive culture, a delicate thing. Peace

Sort:  

and that culture of change should begin with us educating the masses on the need practice the ubuntu philosophy

The way I see it, there should be no fault against the selfie culture. The point of a decentralized social media platform is so that anyone can post literally anything they want and not get taken down. Sure, some people will post messed up shit like child snuff porn. But freedom of speech does not guarantee freedom from consequences.

BTW, no worries man.. This bear market is gonna flush out the fakers before the next bull again. Might happen next year, in 10 years, who knows. The last bear run was nearly 3 years long.

A sad condition of the state of consciousness in most people... we're just replicating the outside in here but with a different self-generated printing system that is easier to exploit.
