RE: Is allowing trending posts about Weed genius or short sighted for Steemit?

in #steemit8 years ago

Personally, I'm actually a big supporter of Marijuana use. I identify as mostly libertarian and think people should be able to put whatever they want in their bodies. I was speaking about what is in the best interest of Steemit's long term growth. I'm wondering out loud if social media site about drugs and potentially other illegal activities be able to grow to as many users as possible.

Sort:  

While your ideology is sound, some of us live in enlightened places where weed is legal. (Colorado) Is it our worry that it is illegal wherever you are?

My real worry is this becomes a haven for content about more serious illegal activity which will turn it off to mainstream users. But I guess the platform will self regulate to find a happy medium between the two.

Don't new people have to be able to make accounts before we can worry about that?
