And I think that's true!
I learn how to communicate with other through my limited ability in language and share ideas, but I am trying to be a better poster.

Practice makes perfect! Keep it up!

this implies that quality content with real value reaches a lot of people. you are right - there is no steem. for now at least the vision of the platform doesn't match with the existing product.

Yea, Steemit could definitely improve some of its discovery features to better promote quality content.

I'm hopeful things can shift overtime, but all the bidbots are definitely frightening.

Somethingsubtle? More like brick to the face! The post is drenched in awesome sauce! Brilliant perspective!

I also am a fan of irony. :)

Your irony cosplay is a spot on dead ringer!

PS that's a good way to cool down irony. To be a fan of it. Your arms must get tired though.

lol

There is no Steem.

This is so very true. It's true in a sense analogous to private property or fiat currency. It's a game.

There are no boundaries between borders really. There is only words that say so that enforce the law of power, and will, and ownership, according to written law.

The bits of paper, or plastic, you hold, with images of sovereign worth, are not actually worth anything, except for the trust and validation of the powerful, and the institutions and organisations that own it.

But make no mistake. Steem is also a fiction.
A made up system of value. As it must be,
Yet… it is one that participates, or is aligned to, changing the rules.

In ideal circumstances (which are not always, or ever met), it creates value from participation.
The value derives from distributed use.

It's not about the Sovereign power, or the esteemed holder of all bases. It's about distributed systems of value.
Well, this is true in an ideal World.

Great post :)

truer words never spoken (typed)

Lol. Thank you.
Hmm. Interestingly, distribution can itself create inequities in power and value. The Whales can dominate the market and have a much greater influence. Its fair in the sense of representing distribution, however it is perhaps also required that the mechanisms work well to keep it fair (perhaps?).
