RE: IS STEEMIT GETTING OVERUN WITH SOCK PUPPET ACCOUNTS?

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

Yes, maybe Steemit (referring back to the issue with the crap search facility) is deliberately substandard for this reason. It gives the illusion of a free-for-all race to be most relevant content whilst mindless faff trends, effectively covering meatier posts with a layer of shit through which nobody can be arsed wading.

Puppets. Yes, there are lots of them giving out loads of nonsense about veganism, for example.

PS Thanks for the James Corbett link.

Oh, and did you know @milkjar from YouTube is here now? I saw his account yesterday :D

Sort:  

Yes I think so too - I suspect Steemit was set up right from the outset to be a controlled social media operation, but the entire internet was originally a military plan and things don't always work out the way they intend.

So I'm a big fan of Steemit anyway, I just don't trust all the motivations of some of the people posting.

Now that I know some of your background, I can open up to you about scams like veganism - I think some vegans are sock puppets but a lot of people fully belive it.

I don't dare do a post about veganism on Steemit (we are a Weston A Price Chapter and I have got some material!) because nobody freaks out quite like vegans!

Milkjar is hilarious - I hadn't seen that before - getting attacked by angry vegans, and banned from youtub for eating meat - LOL!

Yeah, gotta love how the internet got outa hand XD

Yes, I agree about vegan sock puppets. Surely they can read the same scientific papers we can. It's obvs a propaganda mission and people are too stupid or blinded by their ideologies to see it. Pisses me off.

Yes, I remember you telling me about the WAP Chapter (you gave me the link) and Sally, etc. My memory hasn't disintegrated completely yet. You must smoke even more than I do :P

Some vegans are reasonable, but they're very hard to find. Especially online. They're out-competed by the big names.

Yes, Milkjar is funny AF. I think he was banned over discussing Vegan Gains' haemorrhoids (spam style) :P I've seen that compilation.

:P
