Since Andrew Yang isn’t getting much airtime during the debates, we should level the playing field and do a grassroots movement on our opensource, grassroots social media platforms built on Steem!
The hashtag #YangGang is a very popular Twitter tag to promote Presidential Candidate, Andrew Yang.
Andrew Yang is a perfect fit for Steem. First of all, he is pro crypto! He believes in universal basic income (UBI) - Steem does not take from its users it pays its users, to the tune of $100,000,000!
He also dislikes sites that sell users data without cutting them a check. Steem is a decentralized blockchain owned by the users, not a single CEO.
Most importantly, he is actively being suppressed by mainstream media and relies on alternative social media to get his name out there.
He also believes robots may take over the world... if we don't act now! Well, maybe not that dramatic, but he believes robots will displace many jobs, a big one being trucking. He is a very interesting person, and Steemians should learn more about him.
I think Andrew Yang would make a fine Steemian, how about you? I want to do a contest to promote the tag #YangGang here on Steem to see if we can help spread awareness about Andrew Yang!
Contest: Make a post on STEEM using the hashtag #yanggang talking about what you think about his ideas, chances of winning or him as a presidential candidate. Or talk about how you may be against him being suppressed by mainstream media outlets...
If you support him, why?
Don’t like his policies, why?
If you don’t follow him much, you can write something like why you think Andrew Yang would like Steem (he is someone being actively censored, pro crypto, pro UBI & against data farming sites like Facebook.)
RULES: In order to receive a big upvote from @ocdb & me, you must make a Tweet with your Steem post using the hashtag #YangGang & tagging Andrew Yang (@andrewyang on Twitter) Andrew Yang Twitter: https://twitter.com/AndrewYang - The more effort you put into your post, the bigger the upvote you will receive.
Edit: Please add #LetYangSpeak in your Tweet and Steem tags as well. Thanks!
Please post a link to your Tweet below!
This is a great opportunity to show the power of Steem to the world!

I fully support this idea. I believe Yang is the only when speaking the truth about the reality of where our world is going and the only ready to do something immediate. Bernie and Warren are great I wish all the three could partner up and set this world straight.
been squatting on @yang2020 fyi lmk if ya need it :)
Sweet, keep it in the back pocket just in case.
Done :D
Added my supportive Tweet! I would recommend people include the tag #LetYangSpeak , as it is highly used by his supporters following the last debdate.
Great idea! thanks!
@theycallmedan
Those who don't have Twitter (like me) can also participate by writing a post to promote the campaign only on Steem and be upvoted if the post is worth it?
Sure, if you're not on Twitter, it's fine. Twitter is just a great spot to advertise Steem ATM, lots of passionate #YangGang peeps out there that would love Steem IMO.
May I propose Reddit as an alternative to Twitter?
Here's My tweet Link -
i really like him, he's the most human, common sense person i've seen for years, in our evolution as a species, common sense and adjusting to what's an issue in our world today, we need innovation and inspiration.
forget the $1000 per adult a month figure, just imagine if we all could, on the same day, use a stipend to evolve past the slog of regular life and live out our dreams of building out a new future for ourselves, our families future, if everyone spun up a company, invested in token economies, actually used that human HP to build XP in each other.
that would be a world that i would very much love to be a part of.
will support this and make my post today.
Andrew Yang is one of the most intelligent and interesting person I currently know of. Here's my Twitter with link containing a drawing to create awareness for Andrew. I hope to see him on steemit soon.

I also support this effort, there's a lot of synergy between his campaign and policies and steem. Even though I'm not fully on board, I've been watching his campaign with interest and thinking about how Steem could be a good fit.
His subreddit moderators are very wary of crypto though. I guess from their point of view it may not help them with mainstreaming their own candidate and may even be detrimental if the mainstream view is also wary of crypto.
I think we need to get this viral on Twitter so that Yang may join steemit. Him joining steemit would really help us
Posted using Partiko iOS
Agreed. He is pro-crypto as well, could be a nice moment for us
Sweet Dan, so sweet, I'll get to it in the morning and, so any method of writing about the Yanggang is allowed?
Ya. The best way would prob be just your thoughts on his ideas and if your support him why. But anything is cool.
Here's a Link to my tweet
https://mobile.twitter.com/PERCIVAL_JOEY/status/1197773685362438144
Hello my amigo Dan, my idea was to translate your original post to Spanish, so it can reach more people. Hope you like it.
Well done! I appreciate it!
Have you checked out: @yangsupport?
Thanks, reached out.
Amazing! I'm pretty sure the #yanggang will find Steem to be a nice home for them since we work pretty much towards a similar goal!
This is something I'd been thinking about for a while anyway. Here's a link to my entry
I would but I'm one on those blacklisted members for promoting cryptocurrency in 2016. Facebook kicked my out too. I'll try to sneak a profile in tho.
Twitter dsnt have a KYC, vpn + burner email ;)
I just tweeted
I think that brilliant thinking must be supported by all voters. This is an opportunity to improve the impact of modern civilization. Grow moral and economic responsibility from an automation
Good initiative. He is the most pro crypto of the bunch, and it's not really even close.
Agreed, I think with @scottsantens support, we can make this go viral.
This is a fantastic idea. I'm entering ASAP
Cheers! Thanks for the support.
i like twitter guerilla marketing a lot
It works if done well and consistantly.
Here is my tweet
I've done my part sir. I think we need someone like him on here.
Cheers, thanks for being the first entry!
I think me making a post about his ideas would be counterproductive to getting him to join Steem. That being said, he should join instead of wasting his time on Twitter irrespective whether I agree with him or not. There is no purpose in spending time on something that keeps getting manipulated.
With that said, if you don't like his policies, please do share why if you have the time. This isn't about rainbows and sunshine; it is about opening a discussion up for people to debate.
Agreed. Steem is about no censorship, and it is great we have people like you that understand how that is important. People may not agree with his policies but believe he should have a place to talk that isn't being manipulated be centralized forces.
Yes, which is why I joined myself. Posting on an unalterable blockchain is the next best thing to only posting on your own website/digital private property.
The Democrats have become a toxic wasteland, its time to #walkaway. Make America Great Again! Trump2020 🇱🇷
Politic and downvoting war ! Steemit is alive again ! Yeeppiii !!

I love Andrew Yang, seriously.. I really just think the guy is fantasticfor the world. He gets me as a confused millennial lol, he's an actual person and not a shill. Thanks for this contest regardless, very cool.
https://steemit.com/contest/@brandonk/a-real-original-yangster#comments
We dont need andrew yang to pump cryptocurrency prices. He is a socialist since UBI is impossible to fund. Also he is an open borders politician meaning UBI gets more expensive as time goes by which then increases taxes for every citizen.
.
Then write about it and tell us why you feel this way. I am not pro or anti Andrew Yang, that’s not the point at all. I am pro freedom of speech and right now he is being censored. Steem is far more then a get rich scheme for me, we have an actual life changing usecase.
Right...that's why your only method for trying to get people to come here is convincing them they'll get free money?
Shill.
Behave Bernie!
Oops, did not mean to dox this alt-account. Stuff happens.
LOL his alt accounts are common knowledge.
Not to everyone. Again it was not intentional. Just saw it and shot off a retort without thinking.
It is what it is. Ain't looking to get into any flag wars. Already on the outs with Anthony (aka @steemflagrewards), @jaguar.force, et. al. as well as @coininstant and his folks.
This too shall pass.
I am just here to remain relevant. 🤣
Could be worse. I could be @transisto. Poor fella. Just got appointed to the Foundation board and a recent post was down-voted/flagged like crazy.
i really like him, he's the most human, common sense person i've seen for years, in our evolution as a species, common sense and adjusting to what's an issue in our world today, we need innovation and inspiration.
forget the $1000 per adult a month figure, just imagine if we all could, on the same day, use a stipend to evolve past the slog of regular life and live out our dreams of building out a new future for ourselves, our families future, if everyone spun up a company, invested in token economies, actually used that human HP to build XP in each other.
that would be a world that i would very much love to be a part of.
will support this and make my post today.
fk, just realised i didn't tag him, gonna do another one now for that.
Man you should sell vacation packages. No, your right. It sounds like a nice world.
After the line said by Mr. Yang - it’s time for Facebook to grow up
Make me his supporter and big fan of his thoughts
Here is my post on Twitter:-
Im not much into politics my friend but he does sound like a nice guy. Haaa. Sorry funny. But no I hate to get stuck in the illusion that is politics but i do like the way this guy sounds. Ill have to do some more research but i always root for the underdogs. Interesting read. Tweeted

Very good contest steem friends
The #YangGang awareness campaign is here, feel free to share on Twitter for more awareness 😊
@scottsantens
THIS IS NOT A PLACE TO COME FOR FREE MONEY. STOP ENCOURAGING PEOPLE TO COME HERE JUST TO LEECH FROM THE SYSTEM AND CASH OUT!!!
JUST STOP ALREADY, YOU ARE NOT DOING ANYONE ANY FAVORS!!!
All due respect, I don't believe that is @theycallmedan's intent with the #yanggang inititiave. Just saying.
The Yang fella that is running for office as US President is pro-blockchain. Steem and its DAPPS is, I believe, the focus of this initiative. Steem would just give Mr. Yang another forum not to mention the attention it would bring to this blockchain.
More people, larger dividends for large stake holders. Hey, works for me even though I am a small stake-holder.
With the competing blockchains (e.g., EOS, Ethereum, etc.) vying for everyone's attention, getting Mr. Yang's attention over here is a great idea, no?
