RE: Ladies, What can we do for YOU? - Asking Women!
thanks for the post, @fyrstikken :-)
hehe. I feel temptation to write something like 'sometimes i feel like a motherless child'. but everything is ok with steemit, it's a super social net and I'm glad I'm here (as a human and as a lady too of course))
if only...
last two months impossibly to register from Russia because Russian mobile phone. I know this because my friends to whom I'm telling about the steemit can't register. if only this.
we are guessing maybe this might was prohibited because of bots, troll and everything bad (that unfortunately there are a lot from Russia)?? but at the same time there are a lot of normal people too, interesting and talented, and it's a shame that they are can't be here.
*I know about Golos, but for me Steemit is more interesting, it's the whole world is here.
**sorry for my English and thanks again for the post!
thanks, @unmean-stweets!
the possibility for Russians be here is valuable indeed. honestly, in Russia now not good at all with freedom of speech and social nets. not like in China but we are go to this bit by bit, definitely.
thanks for answer, @unmean-stweets!
not yet like in China. (but we are almost all know and can use anonimasers, because so many site are prohibited).
but we are have the law about extremism, scary enough, and for the posts in social nets now can get the real criminal prosecute (and we have precedents already - only because of words, without any real action).
and let me be clear - it's may be not a post about 'real extremism', but any post at all. We can not criticize the policy of Russia in relation to the Crimea, because now such critiks is regarded as a threat to the territorial integrity of Russia under this law and is prosecuted by law. we can not criticize a corruption of any officials.
et cetera. and I not speak about civil activism, how it's hard - it's exist, but these poeple are real heroes. any opposition sites or media are closed and prohibited very soon.
at the same time - it's not yet a China or the North Korea (or the USSR).
That was about freedom of speak.
Speaking about socila nets - they are exists, but regulated by russian laws. even the not-Russian social nets (facebook example) must now hold the data in Russia and they must let the State getting acsess for private accunts. so the steemit as the net in where a human may save anonimity, and in where the state can't regulate - it's valuable! believe me.
(I know about Minds, by the way, but I like Steemit more). There is the paradox with all these blockchain things. on the one hand they are completely open and transparent. but at other hand, exactly this quality is valuable.
we are (me or my friends) are not a criminals, and I'm not interested politics as it is. but I hate when politics begins to go to my life and even to inside my private blog.
I love the username @mysticegoistic :-)
thanks, @seablue :-))
