How Facebook promotes racism and Steemit prevents it

First of all, Facebook was never meant to be on your side. Mark Zuckerburg is a gready control freak cashing out on everyone's private life. This is why I fell in love with Steemit after a few uses.

Steemit is for us! We get to participate in the benefits so there is incentive and a bit of ownership, which I think leads to pride. Not too much but just enough to make it something genuinely unique for everyone.

Facebook has become an echo chamber seemingly working towards suppressing your efforts to get a message across or garner support on a glassroots level. By design you are barely able to reach your established audience. Again, who is this benefiting?

It's all about the money baby!

Facebook promotes racism by trapping people in pigeon holed echo chambers with no possibility for personal growth. If racists are friends with other racists then facebook is the breading ground of racism in america.

To me, Mark built a platform to "race to the bottom" of society with divide and concur at it's core. His only goal was money and control. He knows it's not helping anyone but himself. Everyone is just past the point of addiction and don't know life without FB so there's a bit of denial embedded in the mindset of its users.

This is where steemit is different.

Rather than send a message into an echo chamber, steemit puts your message front and center for the world to see. From there you are able to get support or not; but it's from a larger audience with every perspective. This promotes personal growth!

The ability to see topics outside your normal spectrum promotes growth in imagination something nonexistent on fb.

My first post to steemit garnered a few comments but they were wildly different. I felt more connected to the world than any other platform before it. I was talking with real people whom I might never had before and their opinion was not something I was expecting. I felt this was the strongest community connection I've made online.

(yes I have used instagram, snapchat, twitter, and other social networks. The engagement and culture is different)

This is why I am actively making a switch to how I use facebook and steemit.

I don't post pictures of my food or random nonsense because I have limited time in the day to be productive. So moving forward my plan is to post the meaning information to steemit and I'll link the articles to echo around facebook.

Another thing I noticed from steemit's new way of earning from upvoting, less people were upvoting the dumbass comments. I think it might be the fact people feel like they have a limited about of upvote power and want to use it more appropriately. This is an amazing upgrade from FB.

Is is just me or does Steemit promote more personal growth? compare to Facebook?
