RE: Do small accounts have a place "at the table"? / ... and why cant we be friends?

in #steem6 years ago

Well it's a very interesting situation. Depending on how you believe the situation to be, there's various levels of urgency that drive the dialogue. If you're the kind of person that believes the current state is unsustainable and will cause the whole thing to come crashing down and are passionate about its survival, then you aren't going to mince words in lashing out at who you think is the problem. Of course that's not the most productive way to go about doing things, and we've seen the ugliness first hand here on the platform.

No, there's plenty of adults here though that all think similarly about the state of the platform and what would be beneficial for the platform. I don't think necessarily that small voices should shut up either, because just like in a democracy, small voices add up, and can snowball into a real movement.

Anyway I'm finding myself starting to blab so I'll stop here. To close it off, yes, small accounts have a place in the discussion, and we can surely be friends despite disagreements we might have (okay this isn't quite true. But at least we can be respectful citizens).

Sort:  

Ah yes the small voices do add up. But just like throughout history taking down one voice can discourage the others.
The stick hurts small voices more then the big ones.
But can small voices become big over time... Its really something i love watching... We werent here to explore the world, we are to early to explore the universe, but wer here just at the right time to explore new technology and the human condition.
I dont know what will come of this all but i know ill have some things to say if it once comes to an end.
As i said... Money gives legitimacy. Silly but its true.

Anyways thx for dropping by.
