Systems, programs and accountability won't fix those problems. Those are human heart issues. For me it's about making the voice of the "other" (little people, unpopular opinions, outlawed speech) more difficult to shut down. That's a double edged sword (but only on the surface and only to those who have limited capacity to reason) because that means I support even the nutters rights to spew their hate and not have it shut down. I believe the price of freedom is that we have a marketplace for ideas, ideologies and beliefs and that there are good and bad of all of those and they should be debated vigorously.
I plan on writing about that idea in the future (it's on writing ideas google.doc... LOL) but ultimately, my faith is not in man and his systems. SOMEONE has write access to the code, and I don't know any perfect people. Systems will fail us. It doesn't mean we don't try to make them better, but (for me) the circle was a HORRIBLE life experience and the only person that really resonated with me was the forlorn guy who had been banished to the friend zone... and even he they toned down in the movie to weaken the character.
I don't have a belief that the collective is right and moral. I believe that an individual is a WONDERFUL, THOUGHT-FILLED, THINKING, SENTIENT being... but the collective, the crowd is dangerous. Group thought isn't moral. The rights of the individual need to be protected. I see Steemit as making it more difficult to shut down those rights... and THAT'S one of the reasons I'm here.
Thank you. Im really glad to finally have a real conversation on here. Trust me, the individual is more important to me than the crowd. Its the fact the with a decent crowd system, a pool of intellect so to speak then the collective can make the individuals words and ideas more powerful. I think smt fiefdom is actually alot different then the old fiefdoms. Reputations will be at stake. On steemit rep is everything. Or atleast thats my take. So i want to work hard to be thoughtful and promote the little guy who has astounding visoins and ideas. Of course i feel the need to spread the ideas i carry of decentralization so i can tweak them and build a mental foundation so that my wisdom can become admirable. Im 25 i have babies. I plan on becoming a professor for my childrens minds and the only way to do that fast enough to give them everything is to dedicate myself to the search for answers. Does that make sense. Im like gon from hunterxhunter i see the world for the good and bad and enjoy the chaos of the universe and the comfort of morality equally
