THE WORLD OF STEEMIT.

Lately, I have been reading quite a bit about Government, society, culture and various ideas that people have had over the centuries. It has been interesting to note that people have always talked about free society and a voluntary society but I wasn’t able to find anything even close to it being achieved.
I am not absolutely certain why but I do realize that we run on genetics just like all animals do. Every species has survived and lived generation after generation by genetically induced predispositions. Monkeys, ants, monarchs, elephants, lions, hyenas etc all follow an order of life of their species and have always done so and always will.
Humans may have a greater breadth of imagination but that in no way frees us of our encoded behavior. I have seen and lived amongst many different human cultures and societies. The outward expressions in day to day life seem different but at the core I was hard pressed to find any differences. Is it harsh of me to say that I could not find great differences at the core between a perceived free western civilization and a perceived tyrannical middle eastern regime? Well the West saw its dark ages when the eastern cultures were at their peak. Were we really that different even back then? My answer is that I don’t think so. We exist within the framework of encoded behaviors like all other species.

An amusing thought occurred to me and I shall share it with you. It’s about Steemit. Whatever the idea may have been behind it, the encoded reality has emerged as follows.

STEEMIT GOVERNMENT.
It seems to exist for the mere pleasure of it. It seems unconcerned with the plight of the common steemian. It does not respond to inquiry and is free of accountability to its population.

WEALTH DISTRIBUTION ON STEEMIT
It mirrors any other society. Most have nothing at all. Very few have a ton of money and they are the ones who continue to plunder the pool. The other day I saw a comment from someone called @grumpycat. The cat upvoted it’s comment and it was like 78 bucks. Nice, very nice. The 99% will never amount to much on this platform.

CRIME ON STEEMIT
Depends on how you define it in any society. People like @bellyrubbank and other scammers exist and they are allowed to get away with their crimes. Plagiarism is all around. Multiple accounts by the same person with accounts voting for each other. Crime is rampant is it is is most societies. Look at some travel posts, look at some Anarchy posts. Big money there. Have you figured out how. Some may call it collusion, probably.... Russian.

CENTRAL BANKS OF STEEMIT
These are the bots. You give them money. They will take it and give you less than the value of your bid. They might even tell you that you are making a profit. They do rely on the complex mathematical equation of 2+2=4 and the inability of most of us to understand it. For 7 days you have an amazing optical illusion when you look at potential payout. The bots disclose their actual methodology. It happens in the open. Naive folks have found justifications to openly allow carnage of their money. They call it “visibility”. Interesting.

THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM. OF STEEMIT.
You are a bad boy. “No soup for you”. You get downflagged and lose your money. Note how your SP gives you so much power that you can become the judge and the jury.

It is funny how much anarchists love cryptos. It is hilarious how active they are on the platform and how much they make here. Yet they are part of a system that stands vehemently against all they preach. But again it’s all a show. You can’t beat genetics yet.
Don’t get too serious on this post. Let go the thoughts of negative comments. Remember Shakespeare: “life is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”
