RE: Foster The Minnows: Grumped Up Posts - A song parody by SirCork. Give it a listen! It's got #Satire, #Comedy, AND #Tragedy!
I think once people start creating content for an actual audience, instead of just to make a dollar, the platform will be a much more entertaining place. I get your view. You think that the $1 will feed a third world family. But that family can get $2 simply by begging for dogecoins on reddit. On youtube, you're shunned by the community if you buy followers. Why should it be different on steemit if you buy votes?
I think the ones I'm helping with the dollars, are never going to get to a place where they can touch a computer, let alone understand enough about it to make a dollar, if we don't get them some basic human fundamental needs taken care of first, like food, shelter, clothing, medical things, safe living conditions...
I'm not talking about your charity, lol. I'm talking about steemit users. Grumpycat might be a hypocrite simply because he runs his own bid bot too. But he is actively creating a space where bid bots are frowned upon, and that is good. Because buying votes are worse than stealing content.
