Can someone explain why this post is worth so much Steem and also why it is marked NSFW? I'm new here, so just trying to figure out how the site works.

when you find out let me know........I've seen real posts get paid much less than this.....
They are probably using boots who give upvotes. I am not sure that @hanmeetse1 is using boots, but a lot of users use them... :(
Steem completely depends on stake based voting. The more money you have invested and locked in SP, the more upvoting power you have. So someone with a lot of SP wanted this account to get money for this. Either they were paid, or they just have peculiar taste.
The thing about this ecosystem that might confuse new users is that Steem is the backbone and making money is never any guarantee.
It's the user interfaces (busy.org, steemit.com, d.tube, dlive.io, etc) that allow you to post to the Steem distributed "server". Hence they can choose what to display and how to give users a great social experience, but the highly invested users/their bots are the ones actually pulling the levers on what gets awarded money.
Also by virtue of having a lot of stake, they vote on "witnesses" that provide technical expertise and make sure everything gets included in the "server" itself, even if certain sites may or may not display it. Due to competition amongst these witnesses, spurred on by "wages", also paid for in the form of inflation just as with the upvotes ,absolute censorship is virtually impossible, but also some weird things can get upvoted.
The job is then for each community forming on Steem to make sure they themselves police/sort out or support what content they want to see rewarded the most. This can be done by voting counter to these posts or in the future by creating SMTs that are only awarded based on certain new criteria. It can also be done by creating a site that only displays the "better" posts and completely hides or even autodownvotes"spam".
I'm a noob, and I was gonna say this myself....not as long winded though. LoL
More Steem Power = Higher monetary upvote value.
Read your Welcome FAQ, people.
The long winded thing is my signature.
ramble ramble ramble something that makes sense ramble
😂😂😂😂
Holy crap! Thanks for the upvote, dude!
Thank your advice
Only @dlive know.
I'm not trying to pick on these guys, but I'm with you man. A 10-second video of a person doing nothing? I feel like I should be paid because I was subjected to that. It calls into question the whole platform for me.
