RE: Dan needs to be stopped

in #steem8 years ago (edited)

To clarify: @bacchist and I, and many others, were discussing this in steemit.chat before either of us made a post. We posted on similar but different topics, mine being more broad, this focused more on the github issue. I actually link to this post, in my post, since he posted this first. :)

@anyx & @bacchist I'm sorry that would be my mistake then. I simply saw a cogent argument with a picture of Greek Masks, and another with a picture of Hitler. I had no idea there was an actual discussion that took place before hand in Steemit chat. I apologize to both of you for any confusion on my part and am sincerely sorry for jumping to an unfounded conclusion.

I do still however, stand very much steadfast in my views of rabble rousing a mob to further draw attention to an issue. I've always favored constructive criticism in favor of destructive criticism and I feel that comparing anyone to Hitler over a platform's politics is simply uncalled for. We're talking about a social media platform here, not mass genocide.

I guess when it comes to social media, as long as it draws a crowd, then a post has served its purpose. Whether it is for better or for worse doesn't really seem to matter on social media because a crowd is still a crowd none the less, even in cyberspace.
