RE: The False Appearance of 'Good' Prevents Action to Change for the Better

in #philosophy7 years ago

Centralization of information is the same centralization of power, information can be a source of power just like money of physical force.
I'm not saying centralization is good, I'm saying that is efficient.

Information could be found but you also need time to read and education to understand what you read. So it's not easy especially without leader / rulers.

LOL, erroneous reasoning. There is 1 database called Steemit, and it is centralized information, yet not centralized power to control that information.

That's why I said you can have central info, people still need to learn... Efficiency doesn't trump what is more right as respecting individual rights of people. The efficiency excuse is what have been used by authoritarians for ages.

Ahhh you're talking about Steemit... ok, now I understand what you mean with "centralized information". I was thinking about 1 big source of information, not 1 big channel with lots of sources.

Sure. It's an excuse but it's also true. That's why business have a CEO. That's why Steem have a delegated proof of stake (right?).

Yup 1 person can make decisions faster than 2, 10 or 100.
