On Steemit you have to at least work to create some value, while douchiness is generally value-less, which means it won't be rewarded on Steemit. At least that's my theory for now.

With absolutely zero sarcasm on my part, and total respect to you, I think you might be conflating what it should be like on Steemit, versus the actual reality.
I'm thinking about doing a separate post, but on the "Trending" page today, we have front and center a post from user y@ll@p@pi. To put it nicely, the guy's a real fucking douchebag -- he once made a statement on a Steemit post that he loves having money because he can essentially replace or uproot any negative circumstance, including his own family members!
He's shockingly shallow, conceited, and vapid, yet his posts make hundreds of dollars a pop -- saying much, but saying absolutely nothing. Fortunately, we have ballsy whales like @nonameslefttouse that directly called him an asshole.
Check it out, if you want. In fact, I think you'll find more douchey posts making money than actual good content, which is why Steemit probably won't gain much traction from this #deletefacebook nonsense.
