agreed , it must be great for people with 5 zeroes and the top 20 , but otherwise i still have to seen the benefit, and free downvotes is just free hates and flagwars waiting to happen. But i'll gladly take those words back if the price is back to $1 by december ...

i quite reading the collective progpaganda quite w hile ago after having seen the word "masses" used few too many times where they mean "middle classes" but from a millionnaires p.o.v. that's probably an easy mistake to make. I havent downvoted once on any account since i got on, despite having received some "love" here and there and not being Gandhi at all, it was wasted resources after all which were not used to promote what you like but to censor the place into your own viewpoint (thats my opinion which i hope i'm still entitled to have)
so that's all wasted cos i wont use it, im a bit sorry to see smartsteem/realwolf being positive about it, running actual business here but well, im too practical to withdraw my meager contribution over something like that as long as the returns stay decent ...

From where i stand (the masses as they say) its more like a push in the direction of "paywall for the middle classes" with incentive to buy so the top 50 can stay well-fed , but im sure that argument has been made plenty before and i swear every single time im not gonna react to it anymore

yet here i am ... so bon, may the price prove me wrong :) cos when i want content, google has lots of it :)

how that sounds ? practical, i hope ... i don't see @freedom losing much momentum on the feed, so my guess is so far someone somewhere is still turning profits or the bots would simply stop, i mean who's gonna run one at a loss ? mother Theresa maybe ... see before i start sounding like a wiseguy again, im gonna try and hold the silence until i see actual impact

just p.s. i barely heed replies b/c im actually trying to stay silent but someone at my level is not buying steem as maecenas, saving the whale is greenpeace's job they got the budget for that, despite that, even at 1 dollarcent it's still the best innovation on satoshi i have seen so far

but the politics, my frendz ? DE-centralization as it's called ?

.... (<- dot dot dot ... silence)

done yet ? yes ... but in case of doubt : i have one free account (this is not the one) about everything else came out of my own pockets so far and since i started with steem at about $7 or $8 can't remember i have seen nothing but sell-offs, layoffs ... sell offs lol ... one of your enlightened witnesses once told me "maybe this was not the place for me" back in the day when it was raining thousands on their heads while sleeping ... it's not all gold that glitters in this very very

very small pond where the biggest fish pretend to be the whale ? mCap 5 to 85 ... but you know "talk like that" , its not about the money !
but it actually does say so on the front page when you sign up :)
see ? that's how i make friends in high places

all the time, unless i stop yapping
