You post is an over generalization but a valid point. Yes most folks are on here for their own self interest. I would not say all are though. I have net a few good eggs. I too am disappointed in the platform as many of the same misuses from Facebook have carried over to Steemit. There is selfishness with some however folks have an agenda or else they would not be here. There is promoting and a rare instance of bullying but that happens with a public arena. It does not justify the behavior though. Thanks for sharing.
