"Blockchain's Utopias" ¿A perfect world? ¡Pay it Forward! D-u-d-e!

«-A FEW REFLECTIONS

Someone does you a good turn. You pass it on to three other people. They pass it on. And what a wonderful world this would be. At least, that's the theory behind this post.

It's a seductive theory, but in the real world, altruism, generosity, empathy, solidarity and compassion is less powerful than selfishness, greed, nepotism, xenophobia, tribalism and paranoia. (Within the Steem blockchain and everywhere else on this current world)

¿Are you ready to do the world a favor?

And for the Spanish-speaking community in general and for my beloved countrymen. Let's translate below the context within the video in our own language so that the message arrives stronger and clearer. :)

Y para la comunidad hispanohablante en general y para mis queridos paisanos. Traduzcamos abajo el contexto del video en nuestro propio idioma para que el mensaje llegue aún más fuerte y claro. :)

¡Cadena de Favores!

¿Capisci?

Ok, now all together in unison. Ok, ahora todos juntos al unísono.

¡Never giving up to help others / Nunca rendirse en ayudar a los demás!

"Flashbacks & DejaVus"

(Notorious Quotes)

«-I-»

Chris: You want me to drive home in your car?

Thorsen: No, I want you to take my car. Had a lot of luck lately. I don't need it.

Chris: You're giving me a brand-new Jaguar, and you don't want anything?

Thorsen: I can prove it. Give me your card. I'll be in touch!

Chris: Whoa, what is this? What, you want me to kill your wife or something?

Thorsen: No. Tempting, but no. Call it generosity between two strangers.

«-II-»

Trevor: Were you just being nice?

Eugene: About what?

Trevor: About my idea. Do you think it's good, or were you just being teachery?

Eugene: "Teachery"?

Trevor: Bullshitting.

Eugene: Do I strike you as someone falsely nice?

Trevor: No. You're not even really all that nice.

Dr. John Dee: "This much I know... When the storm breaks, each man acts in accordance with his own nature. Some are dumb with terror. Some flee... some hide... And some spread their wings like eagles and soar on the wind."

¿Pyramid Schemes? ¿MLM Strategies?

Why not allow new & old participants recoup their investments by recruiting new suckers, but with benevolence rather than money as the currency?

So, ¿Why not? for the first time. Let's we all try to make a reality what those stickers calls "Random, senseless acts of kindness might tip the world's moral balance and make it a better place."

I certainly know that in this place floating on the Steem Blockchain, we have the potential and we are closer to achieving that utopic goal sooner than ever before in any other place.

Then... ¿Who gives a damn?

Sort:  

La utopía esta cercana a cumplirse, poco a poco ;D

Nunca mejor dicho, expresado y explicado por un máximo exponente del humor irónico, sarcástico y reflexivo universal como el del gran maestro George Carlin. Excelente aporte al contexto de éste post hermano querido.

Ciertamente la utopía pudiese estar más cercana a cumplirse de lo que parece. En tanto a la gente le de más por LEER y nutrirse incansablemente de nuevas ideas, reflexiones y conocimientos. Siempre contrastándolas luego con lo que ya creían saber. Y que también renuncien de una vez por todas a quedarse estancados en intranscendentales e inútiles SMSs y mensajitos de solo 140 caracteres de longitud para comunicarse y así no demuestren más ser unos vagos y analfabetas funcionales. };)

Y para ripostar en los mismos términos inspiracionales a tu Puku-reggae mensaje musical con otra joya de reflexión rastafari. Aquí te dejo a tí y a todo al que se atreva a asomarse a éste hereje post. Otra melodía con la misma sabrosa cadencia para inspirarse y reflexionar. En la que si de verdad quieren aprender algo nuevo, no van a salir ilesos y van a tener que LEER o escuchar la letra con suma atención!!

Un abrazo!! :)

si bueno,lamentablemente gran parte de la humanidad va por ese camino...asi que sería mas bien una distopía lo que nos viene jejej :S

excelente canción! ellos si estaban claros en lo claro como quien dice!
hay que buscar la redención de todos nuestros cybermales

Excelent Post :D

Gracias mi pana metalero. Me alegra que te haya gustado paisano. :)

The utopian effort is created bit by bit... paying it forward. in my 18 months here, I will soon have given 50,000 upvotes... to how many people I don't know... but the beauty of this place is that it "costs" us nothing to give to another.

The utopian effort is created bit by bit...

And concurrently a 'dystopian' society also is created at the same pace. We certainly must be attentive at all times where you step to avoid stumbling on the road and change course toward the wrong path. ;)

but the beauty of this place is that it "costs" us nothing to give to another.

Yes! that's the beauty indeed. It's a pity that the narcissistic majority loses so much time just admiring 'the beauty' of their own reflected image standing in front of a mirror. };)
