watch vice news you guys. its real investigative journalism where they have real stories. and as for mainstream social media just breeds ridiculousness and haters along with all the fake ass people that are just pretending they have something important to say oh and the people who troll for posts about social issues and start fb wars.....gota love it. i gave up. all social media has ever done for me is cause problems in my relationship. i dont consider steemit in the category of those other websites because everything about this is different along with the fact that we dont have 13 year old on here and most the adults dont act like 13 year olds so it works for me.....for now
